How to make it
- First peel and chop your apples and place them in a large bowl. Our family likes the chunks to be on the smaller size because we make mini muffins. If you are making average size muffins a bigger chop is pretty tasty! Stir lemon juice into the bowl to prevent browning, while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Mash your brown bananas. I freeze any brown bananas I end up with, one at a time, and wait until I have a few to make muffins or bread. If you are using frozen bananas, pop them into the microwave for about 30 seconds to defrost them enough to peel and mash. Once frozen they get very liquidy so make sure to put them in a bowl or plate before you put them in the microwave.
- Add the mashed bananas to the large bowl with the apples.
- Add the rest of the wet ingredients, except the eggs, into the large bowl. Taste for sweetness and spices. Adjust to taste.
- Beat the two eggs and add them to other wet ingredients.
- Preheat the oven to 325 F.
- Grind the flax seeds. I use a blender, because that's what I have, but you can also use a coffe grinder.
- In a medium size bowl, mix all the dry ingredients.
- Add the dry ingredients into the large bowl of wet ingredients and stir until just moist.
- Put paper liners into muffin trays. Spray non-stick spray into the liners, these muffins are pretty dense so they tend to be a little sticky when they first come out of the oven.
- Fill paper liners almost to the top when using the mini muffin trays. When using the average size muffin trays fill them about 3/4 to the top. Both sizes turn out well, but the mini size are perfect for toddler snacks!
- Bake at 325 for 10-20 minutes for mini muffins, depending on your oven. At our house it's about 12 minutes but when I made them at my sister's it was 20! Bake average size muffins for 15-25 minutes.
