   1                     apple -- finely grated, sweet
      1/2           tsp  sea salt
   1 1/2            tsp  baking soda
      1/2           tsp  ground cinnamon
      1/2           cup  whole milk -- or almond or coconut milk
   3                med  carrots -- grated, 1 cup packed
      2/3           cup  rolled oats
      1/2           cup  almond meal
   1 1/8            cup  whole wheat flour

These are one of my favourite muffins both for taste and the goodness 
you can hide in these babies.
They have carrot, apple and banana and the best part is you can make 
the batter entirely in the food processor so they're really quick and 
easy to whip up.

Tip: To make the prep super-easy, I made mine in the Thermomix (you 
could also use a food processor).

I just threw in the carrot and apple and chopped it up (I use speed 7 
for about 5 seconds for chopping things like this) then added all the 
wet ingredients, whizzed it, scraped down the sides, added the dry 
ingredients and gave it another whiz then it was ready.

I'm very big on short-cuts.

Just make sure you don't over-process them.

Prep: 20 MINUTES
Cook: 30 MINUTES
Total: 50 MINUTES

Pre-heat the oven to 160C(320F) fan-forced and grease or line a 
12-hole muffin tin with liners.

Whisk the eggs, banana, maple syrup, coconut sugar and olive oil until smooth.

Add the milk and whisk it in.

Fold through the apple, carrot, oats, almond meal, flour, oats, 
cinnamon, salt, almond meal and baking soda and mix just until combined.

Divide the batter between the 12 muffin holes.

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a cake tester inserted in the 
middle comes out clean.

Leave them to rest in the tin for 15 minutes then transfer to a wire 
rack to cool completely.

Review: These were so good! I made them in the food processor and I 
think they are going to become my go-to muffin base. I had a whole 
heap of carrots, bananas and an apple to use up -even threw in a 
zucchini and some pecans and they came out perfectly! (although next 
time I would probably add more cinnamon, because I like spice) I've 
got a whole bag in the freezer now, all ready for lunch boxes.
