SPINACH MUFFINS for Picky Eaters

These spinach muffins are soft, bouncy, and delicious. They do not taste too spinachy, and everybody loved them at my house including the little ones.

SPINACH MUFFINS

Ingredients:

• 2 cups of Flour (Sprouted Spelt Flour or Organic All-purpose Flour)
• 1 1/2 tsp Cinnamon powder
• 2 teaspoons of Cream of Tartar
• 1 teaspoon of Baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon of Himalayan Sea Salt
• 1/2 cup (120 gr or 1 stick) Butter
• 3/4 cup Milk or Nut milk (I used whole grass-fed milk)
• 1/2 cup Honey
• 1 big ripe Banana (about 6-8 oz)
• 6 oz (170 gr) raw Spinach
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon of Vanilla Extract
• About 18-20 standard Silicon Muffin cups

How to make spinach muffins:

1. Preheat oven to 350 F (180 C). Line the muffin pan with paper liners. I used about 20 silicon muffin cups (standard size) and greased them with some ghee inside.

2. Sift the flour into a large bowl. Add all of the dry ingredients and mix to combine.

3. Put milk, egg, banana, vanilla and honey into a blender cup. Blend till smooth. Add spinach, blend again.

4. Pour the spinach mixture onto a flour mixture. Mix to combine, but do not over mix.

5. Add butter and mix again.

6. Pour the batter in muffin cups until 3/4 full.

7. Bake the muffins in a preheated oven for 22 minutes. The time may change depending on the size of your muffin cups.

8. Insert a toothpick or a wooden stick in the middle of a muffin to check if it is done. If the stick comes out dry, the muffins are ready. Let them cool and serve.
