* Different flavor profiles: Replace the banana with applesauce for a carrot cake-inspired flavor or use peanut butter instead of coconut oil for a creamy, nutty flavor.
* Gluten-free and vegan: Replace the eggs with flax eggs (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons water) and use a non-dairy milk instead of coconut oil for a gluten-free and vegan version.
