Without question, these clean chocolate cupcakes are the best healthy cupcakes I have ever tasted or made in my life. They might even be more delicious than a real cupcake.

In a moment of weakness, I decided I needed a healthy treat. After looking at a couple different recipes and wanting to use clean ingredients, I threw in a bunch of random ingredients into the blender and *POOF!* The most magical clean chocolate cupcakes were born – I really don’t know how that happened.

They’re full of great ingredients and super simple to make. It took a couple minutes to pull them together, making them a winning recipe for any busy mom’s schedule! And, I’m not even kidding, they are better than regular sugary cupcakes… you are going to love them!

Clean Chocolate Cupcakes
Prep time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 15 – 18 minutes
Makes 12 mini muffins or 6 regular ones

Ingredients:
2 ripe peeled bananas
1 whole apple, peeled, cored and chopped
5 – 6 dates
2 large eggs
1 cup almond butter
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 1/4 Tsp. baking soda
1 Tsp. cinnamon
Pinch of sea salt
Cupcake liners

Directions
Preheat your oven to 375°F.

Place all ingredients in your blender. Blend on high for approx. 2 minutes to form a nice batter.

Fill your cupcake liners 3/4 full.

Place in the oven and bake for 15 – 18 minutes. (Check after 15 minutes. The tops should be firmer to the touch, puffed up similar to a soufflé. They may need 18 minutes.)

Let cool on a wire rack.

Store in an airtight container for three days – if they manage to last that long.

Opted to bake six larger cupcakes? Please increase the cooking time to 20 – 25 minutes.

Alright, I need to know. Have you made them? What’d you think?
