Superfantasical Banana Carrot Zucchini Muffins

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    1 medium-large overripe banana
    2 tablespoons canola oil
    1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
    3/4 cup unrefined sugar
    1/4 cup nondairy milk
    1 cup unbleached all purpose flour
    1 cup unbleached whole wheat flour
    3/4 teaspoon baking powder
    3/4 teaspoon baking soda
    2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
    1/8-1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    Approx. 1-1 1/2 cups grated carrot/zucchini

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Mash the banana in a medium bowl. Add the oil, applesauce, sugar, and milk.  Stir and set aside.

In a separate, large bowl, combine the flours, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt.  Slowly fold in the banana mixture.  Combine the veggies. Add a splash of milk if the final mixture is too dry.

Grease a muffin tin with a little oil.  Spoon the batter into the pan, about 1 spoonful for each muffin (about 3/4 to all the way full.) Bake in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
