Before you start

A blender, a mixer or a food processor will make things easier for this recipe.

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C/325°F. Place 12 large paper muffin cups in a 12 cup muffin pan.
  2. Put the cashew in a food processor and process until it as the consistency of nut butter. Set aside.
  3. In a bowl, combine the flours, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites using a mixer until soft peaks form. Add the mashed bananas, cashew butter and honey, then fold in using a spatula. Mix in the dry ingredients. Mix until homogeneous, then gently fold in the dark chocolate, raspberries, and walnuts.
  5. Using an ice cream scoop, spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
  6. Bake in the middle of the oven for about 40 min, until a tooth-pick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Take the pan out of the oven, then put each of the paper lined muffins on a rack to cool. Serve.
