Peel and grate carrot, place apple and carrot in a pot with a little water, pop a lid on and simmer until apple soft. Usually 5-6 mins

While apple and carrot cooking, place banana in a large bowl, mash with a fork

Add eggs, vanilla, and butter/oil

Puree the cooked apple and carrot, I use a stick blender

Add apple and carrot to the other wet ingredients

Beat these wet ingredients together with a hand-held beater, should become smooth, yellow and a little frothy

Add the flour and baking powder

Beat for a further 30-60 seconds to make a well-mixed batter

Portion into an oiled muffin tin (I use a non-stick silicon tray sprayed with oil) Mix makes 12 standard sized muffins or 30 mini muffins

Bake at 180 degrees Celsius for 15 mins (350 Fahrenheit) 15 min cook time is based on making mini muffins, the mix makes approx 30 mini muffins. If you are using a standard muffin tray and making approx 12 muffins the cook time will be longer, approx 25-30 mins

Cool

Serve

These muffins can be stored in an airtight container for 3 days, or they can be frozen.

The mix makes 30 mini baby muffins or 12 standard-sized muffins.

Ingredient notes and substitutions

Oil: be sure to choose a mild flavoured oil such as light olive oil, rice bran oil or coconut oil. This recipe will also work with melted butter. This recipe is successful without the butter/oil, but you getter a softer muffin with it, and they remain softer for longer with the added butter or oil

Flour: This recipe will work with a gluten free baking flour.

Eggs: I have not personally tested this recipe with out the eggs but i have had feedback fro readers that the recipe does work with an egg replacer

This recipe is successful without the butter/oil, but you getter a softer muffin with it, and they remain softer for longer with the added butter or oil

To make the recipe dairy free, substitute the melted butter for a mild tasting vegetable oil.

15 min cook time is based on making mini muffins, the mix makes approx 30 mini muffins. If you are using a standard muffin tray and making approx 12 muffins the cook time will be longer, approx 25-30 mins
