Giant Flourless Chocolate Cashew Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 6-cup jumbo muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
• Microwave the cashew butter in 30-second increments until it is slightly warm and easy to stir.
• Beat together the cashew butter and eggs with an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until smooth and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the maple syrup, cocoa powder, vanilla, baking soda and salt until the mixture is smooth, thick and glossy (like a brownie batter).
• Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tin and bake until the muffins puff up, the tops are cracked and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch round springform pan and layer the bottom with a round of parchment paper.
• Whisk the ground cashews, sugar, oats baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the beaten eggs, olive oil, vanilla bean seeds and orange extract, if using, and beat well to combine.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until golden and fully cooked, 25 to 30 minutes. (Note that the top will look a little bubbly--that's OK!)
• Let cool in the pan 10 minutes, then use a knife to loosen from the sides and remove. Transfer to a rack to cool completely. Serve dusted with confectioner's sugar, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-5-inch nonstick loaf pan with baking spray or vegetable oil and set aside.
• Combine the bananas, oil, sugar, vanilla and milk in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat until smooth. Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until smooth. (Alternatively, whisk together the wet ingredients in a large bowl, then stir in the dry ingredients with a wooden spoon.) Fold in the chocolate chips, then pour the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake until the cake has risen, is slightly cracked and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes.
• Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, and then run a knife around the edges to loosen and remove from the pan. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
