Vegan Banana Nut Muffins

For 12 Delicious Muffins:
3 ripe bananas
¼ cup vegetable oil
½ cup organic raw sugar
½ cup organic brown sugar
2 cup unbleached organic white flour
1/8 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground nutmeg
½ cup pecans


Preheat the oven to 360

First, in a small bowl mash the bananas with a fork and set them aside.

Mix both sugars with the oil and add the mashed bananas- mix well.

Next, mix the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg in a separate bowl and add a cup at a time to the wet ingredients. Make sure everything is combined, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed, and stir in the pecans (you can use any nut you like, but pecans are super tasty in this recipe!).

Spray your muffin pan with a vegan cooking spray and spoon the batter into each hole. Make sure to fill the holes ½ to ¾ of the way full as the muffins will rise and popover the tops. The batter will be thick so having an extra spoon to push batter into the holes would be beneficial.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes and enjoy!
