Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, matcha powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In another large bowl, mash the bananas, then add the sugar, coconut oil, egg, and vanilla. Beat with a whisk or electric mixer until well combined.

Step 4

Stir the milk into the banana mixture, then fold in the flour mixture until just combined.

Step 5

Distribute the batter evenly between 12 greased muffin cups, or use paper or silicone muffin cup liners. Sprinkle the coconut flakes over each muffin, if desired.

Step 6

Bake for 20-22 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the muffins comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove from oven, let cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then remove and finish cooling on a wire rack.
