Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners (I’m using food-grade reusable silicone ones) or lightly grease.
- In a large bowl, mash the banana until smooth.
- Stir in the applesauce, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Fold in the grated zucchini and carrot.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and gently mix until just combined—don’t overmix.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
- Bake for 20–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Optional: After 20 minutes, brush a little maple syrup or honey over the tops and return to the oven on a low broil for 1–2 minutes for a golden finish. Watch closely—sweeteners burn fast!
- Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Storage:
- Room temp: up to 2 days in an airtight container
- Refrigerate: up to 5 days
- Freeze: up to 3 months (thaw or microwave to warm before serving)
