Green Smoothie Muffins

Green Smoothie Muffins

Ingredients
3 ripe bananas
8 strawberries
2 cups baby spinach (or kale)
1 1/2 c. flour (I like King Arthur's white whole wheat flour)
3/4 c. sugar (or honey + 1/4 c. extra flour*)
1 egg
1/4 c. coconut oil
1 t. baking soda
1 t. cinnamon
1/4 t. salt

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350
2. Blend bananas, strawberries and spinach
3. Lightly mix flour, sugar, egg, oil, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in medium mixing bowl
4. Spoon into muffin tins, about 3/4 the way full (2/3 if using sugar)
5. Bake for 20-30 minutes, until knife comes out clean

*I've found that using honey instead of sugar makes it so the muffins do not rise as well as the texture is significantly different (denser, more gooey). But we are used to it now, and the taste is just as good, if not better!
