These bright green muffins are perfect for superheroes, loaded with fresh spinach but taste like sweet banana muffins. Muffins may be frozen. To reheat, leave wrapped muffins on the counter overnight, or microwave a frozen muffin on 50% power for about 20 seconds.

Really good recipes with a few tweaks. Instead of sugar I used 3 tbs of honey and 2 stevia packets. This added just the right amount of natural sweetness. If you re going to use sugar I would suggest turbinado because it doesn t clash as much with the spinach. Read More

I followed the instructions with no changes. This recipe made 12 regular muffins at 2 tablespoons per muffin plus another 12 mini muffins at 2 teaspoons per muffin. These are exceptionally moist and not too sweet. At the end I did put some crushed almonds on top of half of them. I will be making this recipe over and over again. Thank you for sharing. Read More

Have made this recipe several times now. My 3 year old daughter loves these and so do I! I have used coconut milk or regular milk because don t usually have almond milk on hand. Have also substituted vanilla extract for the almond extract. Are best when eaten fresh. Read More

Made as directed and came out great! Banana flavor really comes through and you can t taste the spinach at all. I topped with almond whipped cream (whipping cream sugar almond extract) which seemed to go well. Next time I ll try an almondy icing I think. Read More
