What do you need to make banana carrot muffins:
Ripe bananas - the browner the banana the better!
Carrington Farms Organic Coconut Cooking Oil - or any melted coconut oil
Shredded carrots- you can shred whole carrots or buy them shredded already
Optional: dried fruit or chopped walnuts
How to make banana carrot muffins:
- In a large mixing bowl, mash ripe bananas and stir in coconut oil.
- Mix in shredded carrots and other dry ingredients.
- Fill muffin cups to the top and bake.
TIP: Because these are vegan banana carrot muffins and do not have eggs in them they do not rise. For bigger muffins fill the cups to the top.
No muffin tin? You can make these into banana carrot bars instead by pressing mixture on parchment paper on a baking sheet.
How long do Banana Carrot muffins last?
It is best to store these vegan muffins in the refrigerator and eat within 5 days.
Serving suggestions:
Consider crumbling these over a bowl of Greek yogurt like granola for an extra dose of protein.
Heat them up in the microwave and serve with almond butter for extra healthy fat.
