Spinach Muffin Recipe = Soy Milk, Banana & Spinach Combine

“Popeye Spinach Muffin Recipe”

Spinach Muffins 

I made these in April after I found the recipe at thegreenforks.com.

This recipe uses fresh spinach to color the muffins. I substituted soy milk, which was what I had in the house, made the texture and density of the muffins really yummy. The secret to the success of this spinach muffin recipe is the added banana and vanilla.

1⁄2 cup mashed banana (from about 1 to 2 bananas)
2 tsp pure vanilla extract*
1(6 ounce) bag fresh baby spinach

Method

Preheat oven to 350°F

Use paper liners in two 12-cup muffin pans.

Whisk together dry ingredients in a large bowl.

Put the oil, milk, and spinach in a blender on pulse and puree. (I had some ripe bananas) Add banana mashed or cut up and vanilla; whiz to mix.

Pour the blended mix into dry mixture slowly, then stir together with a rubber spatula.

Scoop batter into each lined muffin tin – 2/3s full.  Bake 18-20 minutes.

Notes: Next time I would add 3 teaspoons of vanilla, when using soy milk.

It’s a great recipe and what a funner way to eat spinach.
