Blender Spinach Muffins

Summer break is on the horizon and I couldn’t be more excited! We recently had a taste of an early Spring only to be followed by more snow and wet, cold weather. Only in Wisconsin! But trees are budding, the grass is turning green, and a countdown to the last day of school has begun!

We eat a lot more muffins in the summer than in the winter months. It’s nice to have them available when the kids think they are starving only a few minutes after they eat lunch! For that reason, I like to have Hulk Spinach Banana Muffins in the rotation. At least they are getting in some spinach! They are easy to make, takes me only a few minutes to whip them up! They keep nicely, too, so they will travel well to the pool or lake.

Some other snacks I like are Peanut Butter Cherio Bars , Monster Cookie Energy Balls , or No Bake Nutella S’mores Granola Bars!

3/4 cup Vanilla Yogurt

1/4 cup Oil

1 Overripe Banana

2 tsp Vanilla

3 cups Fresh Spinach

2 cups Flour

3/4 cup Sugar

3 tsp Baking Powder

1/2 tsp Baking Soda

How to Make Hulk Spinach Banana Muffins

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a muffin pan with liners and set aside.

In a blender, combine 3/4 cup vanilla yogurt, 1/4 cup oil, 1 overripe banana, 2 tsp vanilla, and 3 cups packed fresh spinach. Blend until smooth.

In a separate bowl, combine 2 cups flour, 3/4 cup sugar, 3 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and 1/2 tsp salt. Mix together until well combined.

Pour the batter into the dry ingredient mixture and mix just until well combined.

Divide evenly between muffin liners and bake for 15-16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
