Healthy Frankenstein Green Muffins

how to make Healthy green Monster Muffins

Raise your hand if you are a parent, always trying to “sneak” healthy ingredients into your kids food! It seems like it’s a constant battle trying to find healthy snacks with nutritional value that children actually like. I used to make oat protein muffins for Bowen when he was just over a year old, and he LOVED them (I can’t actually remember why I stopped making them!) So I amended that recipe to create healthy green monster muffins and voila! Recently, our little Frankie has been obsessed with these- so we’ve affectionately named them the  Frankie-nstein muffins!

The best part about these monster muffins is that you literally throw everything into a blender, mix, and then pour into a muffin tin. Healthy ingredients, super simple process… perfect for those of us with a million things going on!

Another reason we named these healthy green muffins.. they actually look like Frankenstein.. just in time for Halloween! These would be ideal for class Halloween parties- gluten free, dairy free and nut free for those with allergies! Alternatively, you can make in December, frost with red icing- and boom.. Christmas themed muffins!
