Vegan Banana Pumpkin Muffins

I made some mini vegan banana pumpkin muffins because I figure they'd be great for a quick snack. Plus, my boys aren't going to eat a regular size muffin and the other half just sits there. You can definitely use this recipe to make regular size muffins. The cooking time would be a bit longer, though.

This recipe yields 48 mini muffins.

First things first. Gather all your ingredients.

Ingredients:

-2 cups of flour

-1 teaspoon baking soda

-3/4 teaspoon baking powder

-1/2 teaspoon salt

-1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

-1/4 teaspoon ginger

-1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

-1/8 teaspoon cloves -3-4 overripe bananas

-2/3 cup pumpkin puree (check out the recipe here)

-1/3 cup maple syrup

-1/3 cup avocado oil (or choose another mild flavor oil of your liking)

-1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Along with the ingredients, grab yourself a big bowl, a small bowl, a whisk and a wooden spoon.

Steps:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and spices.

Combine all the dry ingredients

3. Mash the bananas in a small bowl or plate.

I mashed them in a plate because it was easier for me.

4. Add the bananas, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, vanilla extract and oil to a small bowl and mix, mix, mix.

5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. I would switch to using a wooden spoon because the mixture will thicken up.

When you combine the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, the mixture thickens up. I switched over to a wooden spoon because it was just clumping in the middle of the whisk.

6. After all ingredients are combined into a nice texture, scoop into the muffin tin. You can use liners if you'd like. I didn't have any on hand, so I just put it directly into the tin.

I filled these up twice to get 48 mini muffins.

7. Put the muffins in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. If you're using the regular size muffin tins, I would let them bake for 25 minutes. Check with a toothpick and if it comes out clean, they're done! Let them cool on a cooling rack for ten minutes.

Look how cute!

8. Enjoy them! They remind me of the little bites snacks!
