Description

“ABC Baby Muffins – a healthy, sugar-free snack for babies featuring apples, bananas, and carrots. These moist mini muffins are perfect for baby-led weaning or as a nutritious on-the-go snack.”

 


Ingredients

  • 1 cup mashed very ripe banana (23 small bananas)
  • ½ cup shredded apple (1 small apple)
  • ¼ cup shredded carrot (1 small carrot)
  • ¾ cup milk (dairy or unsweetened plain nondairy)
  • ¼ cup melted unsalted butter (or melted coconut oil)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ⅛ tsp salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 24-cup mini muffin pan with nonstick spray.
  • In a medium bowl, mix mashed banana, shredded apple, shredded carrot, milk, melted butter (or coconut oil), egg, and vanilla extract.
  • In another bowl, whisk whole wheat flour, rolled oats, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Fold dry ingredients into the wet ingredients gently until just combined. Do not over-mix.
  • Divide batter evenly into the muffin pan, filling each cup to the top (about 2 tablespoons per cup).
  • Bake for 16-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for maximum natural sweetness.
  • Adjust baking time for larger muffins.
  • Peeling apples and carrots ensures a smooth texture, suitable for babies.
