Equipment

  • 12-cup nonstick muffin pan
  • 1 food processor

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups chopped, stemmed kale
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup 100% pure maple syrup
  • 2 tbls. unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 tbls apple cider vinegar
  • 1 1/2 cups oat flour, whole wheat flour, or GF flour
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 cup blueberries

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Cook the kale in a pot with 1-2" of simmering water until the kale is dark green and soft. Drain the kale (you should have about 1 cup) and add to a food processor along with the water, maple syrup, applesauce, vinegar and vanilla. Blend until uniformly mixed - it will look like a green smoothie at this stage. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the flour, baking soda, and cinnamon and stir. Add the blueberries and you are ready to scoop the batter into the muffin wells.
  • Bake the muffins for 18 minutes, until the tops are firm to the touch. Best served warm but will last for 5 days in airtight container.
