SPINACH MUFFINS

Ek het vandag hierdie spinasie muffins gebak. Moet sê dit is nogal lekker.

¾ cup of pureed spinach
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
¼ cup of oil
½ cup of applesauce
2 cups of flour
¾ cup of sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon of salt

Preheat oven to 180ºC and spray muffin tin with cooking spray.
Puree spinach and add ¾ cups of it to a blender along with the vanilla, eggs, oil and applesauce. Blend until mixed together.
In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients – flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Add wet ingredients from blender and mix wet and dry ingredients until a batter forms. Pour into muffin tins so each muffin is ⅔ full.
Bake for 20 minutes at 180ºC or until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
