Equipment

Ingredients 
 

  • 1 banana ripe
  • 2 eggs
  • 80 g cooked carrots about 1/2 cup
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 55 g oat flour 1/2 cup
  • 1 tbsp flaxseed meal
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 356F (180C) and grease a mini muffin tin.
  • Add the cooked carrots, coconut oil, banana and eggs to a blender and blend until smooth.
  • In a bowl, add the oat flour, flaxseed meal (or flour), cinnamon, baking powder and mix.
  • Pour wet ingredients from blender into the dryingredients bowl and combine.
  • Split the batter into 12 mini muffins or 6 regular sized muffins.
  • Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 15 minutes for minis and 20 minutes for regular sized muffins.

Notes

  • This recipe makes 12-14 mini muffins. You can make regular muffins by adding a few more minutes to the baking time.
  • Use cooked carrots. Preferred cooking methods are steaming or roasting to preserve the color. If carrots are cooked in water, it will add too much moisture to the recipe, so make sure to drain well.
  • Be sure to weigh the carrots or the muffins may not have the best texture if too much or too little is added.
