Notes

Blending Tip: For a smoother texture, ensure the spinach is finely blended with the wet ingredients before combining with dry ingredients.

Muffin Size: This recipe yields approximately 12 mini muffins. If using a standard muffin tin, add 2-5 minutes to the baking time.

Sweetness Level: The natural sweetness from bananas is usually good, but you can add a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup if desired.

Serving Suggestions: Pair with fresh fruit or a dollop of yogurt for a balanced snack.
