Spinach Blueberry Muffins -- kid approved

Recipe adapted from Yellow Brick Home

Ingredients

• 3 bananas, mashed
• 1/4 cup olive oil or melted coconut oil
• 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup milk (almond, coconut or regular)
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tsps cinnamon
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 8 oz baby spinach, pulsed or blended 
• 1/2 cup frozen blueberries 
• 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 cup oat flour

For both the spinach and oat flour, my blender worked great! First I put oats in the blender dry and pulsed until it finely ground into a flour and removed from blender. Then I used it to fine chop the spinach (or use a food processor if you have one). 

Instructions

Our kids loved so much, they snuck a
muffin right while I was taking a picture ;)

• Preheat oven to 350F
• Mash the bananas, add oil and mix together
• Add applesauce, vanilla and milk to the bowl, and mix everything together
• Mix in eggs
• Add cinnamon and baking soda
• Then add the finely chopped spinach and frozen blueberries
• Lastly, add the wheat and oat flour, and stir until combined
• Spoon mixture into lightly greased muffin tins, I used mini muffin tins
• Bake for 20 minutes and check for done with a toothpick

After cooling, I froze in a Stasher silicone bag. They work great as snacks and in lunchboxes!
