Variations
  1. To Omit Banana, increase Zucchini and Carrot to 3 full cups each.
  2. To Omit Oil, substitute applesauce or other pureed fruit or paste.
  3. Add a crumble-top by sprinkling brown sugar, white sugar or crushed walnuts atop the muffin batter before it goes into the oven.
  4. Extra Virgin Olive Oil may be replaced with Coconut Oil or Butter.
  5. Cinnamon may be replaced with “pumpkin pie spice”.
  6. Add Raisins or Dehydrated Cranberries for a moister muffin.
  7. I used All-Purpose Enriched White Flour, but feel free to use whatever base powder you want. Oat and Rice powders are options.
