I call these camo muffins and not just because of the green and brown ingredients. The healthiness is totally camouflaged by the yum! You can be so sneaky about getting spinach in kiddos' (big grown up kiddos included) bellies with these little guys.
These will be perfect to make ahead and grab for a quick healthy breakfast before running off to school!
Camo Chocolate Chip Muffins
1 large ripe banana, mashed
1 egg, large
2 egg whites, large
½ cup yogurt (I used coconut milk vanilla)
2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup ground oat flour*
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ cup coconut sugar
¼ cup cocoa powder
⅓ cup chocolate chips (Enjoy Life)
2 handfuls of spinach
Place banana and yogurt in a your vitamix and puree until smooth. Then, add in 2 giant handfuls of spinach and blend again until smooth. Transfer into a large bowl and add the rest of the wet ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon until smooth. Next, add in dry ingredients and mix. Spray your cupcake tins with coconut oil spray or use liners. Fill muffins about ¾ of the way full. Bake at 350ºF for about 20 minutes or until the center is fully cooked.
*Always make sure your oat flour is GF. I don't react to certified gluten free oats, but I know some gutsy girls do. If you try subbing a different GF flour let me know how it turns out!
