Health and fertility benefits of Banana Chocolate Fonuts (Wheat/Gluten Free)

Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly. (Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11506060).

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups white rice flour
1 1/2 cups almond meal
6 tablespoons sugar (we like organic cane sugar)
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup refined coconut oil or other oil (see Cook's Note)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
8 bananas, very ripe
2 eggs
1/4 cup chocolate chips, or as desired

Instructions

Cook's Note: If using coconut oil, use a water bath to melt the oil.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl, mix the white rice flour, almond meal, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. In a medium bowl, mix the coconut oil, vanilla extract, bananas and eggs. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, being careful not to over-mix. Lastly, add the chocolate chips. Pour into doughnut pans and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. They are done with the center bounces back when touched.
