Apple Zucchini Muffins

We like to give Z variety in the food that she eats for both her meals and snacks, so I am always coming up with new things to try in the kitchen. We do have puffs and a couple other snacks for on the go, but I find muffins and squares work just as well (and Z really seems to like them). Although Z loves her fruit and vegetables, if that ever changes, these muffins are a great way to sneak some in.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and in a bowl combine:

  • 1 cup shredded apple
  • 1 cup shredded zucchini
  • 1 cup flour 
  • 1/2 cup ancient grains baby cereal (if you are making for older kids or adults just add another cup of flour)
  • 1/3 cup quinoa flakes (or oats if that is what you have)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup apple sauce
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • Dash of nutmeg

I used mini muffin tins and poured the batter into greased tins. Bake for 15-17 minutes. Enjoy fresh or freeze to pull out for a tasty snack later. Enjoy!
