1/2 cup granulated sugar
-
1 tablespoon matcha powder
-
2 teaspoons baking powder

Pinch of salt

1 large egg

1 cup reduced-fat milk

2 ripe bananas, mashed
-
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper or silicone liners.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, matcha powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Evenly divide the batter between the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

Sprinkle sweetened coconut flakes over the tops of each muffin.
