ABCD = Apple…Banana…Coconut…Dates…
Now you know your ABCD, next time won’t you bake with me?
2 apples, cored and quartered
70g pitted dates
1 medium banana (frozen or fresh)
55g rice bran oil or oil of choice
180g milk of choice (I use rice milk)
1 egg
250g SR flour (wholemeal, white or combination)
85g raw sugar
30g desiccated coconut
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Preheat oven to 180°C. Prepare muffin tray.
Place apples, dates and banana (if using frozen) into TM bowl. Pulse on Turbo several times until apple is grated and dates finely chopped, scraping down sides as you go.
Add banana (if using fresh), oil, milk and egg. Mix 10 sec/speed 4. Scrape down sides and repeat if necessary.
Add flour, sugar, coconut and cinnamon and mix 10-15 secs/speed 4 or until just combined.
Spoon into muffin cases and bake for approximately 20 minutes. Makes about 20 muffins.
VARIATION
AC⚡DC Muffins! Instead of a banana, add one carrot along with the apples and dates in the first step.

Hi Chris,
These look so yummy! Perdect for lunch boxes.
What could you substitute for the coconut? Or would they work without it altogether?
Thanks,
Kate
Yes, nut-free so lunchbox-friendly. You could probably leave the coconut out, or maybe throw in a handful of rolled oats for a little extra low-GI nutrition. Of course, they wouldn’t be ABCD anymore – unless you used cacao and made them chocolatey!
