Mini Veggie Muffins Recipe

Ingredients:

– 1 cup whole wheat flour
– 1/2 cup grated carrots
– 1/2 cup grated zucchini
– 1/2 cup fresh spinach, finely chopped
– 2 large eggs
– 1/2 cup organic grated cheese
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
– 1/4 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your silicone muffin trays or line them with muffin liners.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk until well mixed.

3. In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the grated carrots, zucchini, spinach, grated cheese, and milk. Stir until combined.

4. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.

5. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin trays, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

6. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the muffins are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

7. Allow the muffins to cool slightly before removing them from the trays. Serve warm or store in an airtight container for later.

These mini veggie muffins are not just a tasty treat; they are a fantastic way to sneak in those essential veggies for your little ones!
