Banana-Apple-Date Muffins

Ingredients

• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• another 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 Tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 Tablespoons unrefined sugar
• 3 very ripe bananas (mashed)
• 1 cup plain or vanilla non-dairy-milk (such as soymilk, ricemilk, oatmilk, etc. – I use oatmilk)
• 1/3 cup applesauce
• 2 Tablespoons agave nectar
• 1/4 cup dried apples (finely chopped)
• 1/4 cup seedless dates (finely chopped)

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a muffin pan with cupcake/muffin cups. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon, and mix well.

2. 2

   In another bowl, mash the banana with the sugar, non-dairy-milk, applesauce, and agave nectar. Add the chopped dried apples and dates to the wet mixture, and stir well to combine.

3. 3

   Pour the wet mixture into the flour mixture, and stir just until combined (do not overmix the batter). Pour into muffin cups and bake for 15-20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
