Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin (line if desired). Set aside.
Combine coconut flour, almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
In a large, glass mixing bowl (or on a stovetop over low heat) melt together coconut oil and peanut butter (for about 1 minute on high), stir until combined.
Put the zucchini and mashed banana into the container of your Vitamix blender. Blend until smooth (about 15-30 seconds)
Add the melted peanut butter/coconut oil mixture, maple syrup and vanilla and blend until smooth.
Add eggs and blend until just combined.
Pour wet ingredients from the Vitamix into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until completely combined.
Gently mix in chocolate chips.
Pour about ¼ cup batter into each prepared muffin well until all the batter is used.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, until top is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before gently removing each muffing from the pan to a wire rack to cool.
Enjoy!
Notes
Alternately you can make this into bread using a lined and greased 8x4” or 9x5” loaf pan. Bake for 30-40 minutes (less for a larger pan)!
