Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mash the 2 bananas until mostly smooth.
  • Add the 1/3 cup melted coconut oil, 1 egg, and 1/3 cup water to the mashed bananas and mix until combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour and 1 tsp baking soda.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined—do not overmix.
  • Gently fold in the 2/3 cup blueberries. (If you want blueberry garnish, reserve a few berries before folding them into the batter.)
  • Using a 3-tablespoon portion scoop, fill each prepared muffin cup about two-thirds full with batter.
  • Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Remove the muffins from the oven, let them sit in the pan a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and cool completely before adding any topping.
  • Optional sugar-free topping: beat the 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream with a mixer until stiff peaks form.
  • To serve, add a small dollop of the whipped cream to each cooled muffin and, if reserved, top with a reserved blueberry.

Notes

Muffins for humans usually rise but homemade dog treats contain a small amount of rising agents and oils that keep it safe for the dog and typically affect how a muffin rises. These biscuits will not be the same as a human muffin.
Store any leftover dog greats in an airtight container for 3-5 days.
Peanut butter makes a great “frosting”.
