Vegan Chocolate Zucchini Beet Muffins! Say What?

House was quiet, with all the little people sleeping, so I decided to make some muffins. 

I had a base of a recipe but as per usual altered it. 

They turned out delicious!

Healthy. Vegan. Kid-Approved (fingers crossed!)

1 1/4 cup spelt flour (use a gluten free blend if you wish)

1/4 cup cacao (the real deal, like this or this)

1 1/4 tsp baking powder

3/4 baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp cinnamon

Mix the above in a bowl

In a separate bowl mix together

1 banana, mashed

1/4 cup sweetener (I used maple syrup, brown sugar will do)

1/2 cup applesauce

1/4 cup milk (I used almond)

Once these are mixed add in 1/2 cup grated zucchini and 1/2 cup grated beet (I did not have a enough zucchini for a full cup so improvised with the beet. It worked)

Mix the dry into wet.

I then added a handful of dairy free chocolate chips. 

Place into muffin tray.

 Bake at 375F for 20 min. 

Done.
