Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 350. spray muffin tins with nonstick spray.
• 2 combine 1/2 cup brown sugar, peanut butter, vegetable puree, banana, and egg in a large mixing bowl. jessica says use a large wooden spoon.
• 3 mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. i'd put it in bowl and combine with a whisk, but jessica suggests putting them in a ziptop bag and shake.
• 4 fold the dry mix into the wet mix and combine until just lumpy. don't overmix, these are muffins. add the remaining 1/2 cup of brown sugar and stir once or twice. jessica says this puts a crust on the top of the muffins.
• 5 divide the batter between the muffins. cook until lightly brown and a toothpick comes out clean. 15 to 20 minutes.
• 6 store at room temp for up to two days, or freeze for up to a month.
