Instructions

Preheat your oven to 190˚C/gas mark 5/350°F.

Put the mashed banana in a big bowl with the carrots, milk, maple syrup, vinegar and vanilla extract  and melted coconut oil, mix well.

Mix the flour, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder, mixed spice and salt.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well.

Gently fold in the seeds, nuts, dates and oats.

Don’t over mix as this helps keep the muffins fluffy.

Place the mixture in 12 muffin tins.

Bake for about 25 minutes. You can test with a skewer and if it comes out with mixture on it bake for a few more minutes.

Cool on a cooling rack for about 5 minutes or so.
