Ingredients


2 1/2 cup Wheat flour, whole wheat
2 tsp Baking powder
1/2 tsp Baking soda
1/2 tsp Salt
1 large Egg
3/4 cup Granulated sugar
3/4 cup Buttermilk, low fat
1/4 cup Avocado oil
1 tsp Vanilla extract, pure
171 gm Baby spinach
2 medium Banana (s) (very ripe)

Instructions


  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners or grease with nonstick cooking spray (the recipe makes between 16-18 muffins).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a blender, add the egg, sugar, buttermilk, oil, vanilla, spinach and bananas.
  4. Blend until pureed and smooth.
  5. Pour the spinach mixture into the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. A few small dry streaks and lumps here and there are ok. Don't overmix or the muffins can be dry.
  6. Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling the cups about 2/3 full. 
  7. Bake for 15-18 minutes (increasing time as needed as each oven differs slightly in exact oven temperature) until the tops of the muffins spring back lightly to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let the muffins cool for a few minutes in the pan; turn them out carefully onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
