Green veggies are a tough one to hide, so chocolate is the perfect cover! The kids gobbled these up so quickly and had absolutely no clue that I snuck an avocado in. Yields: 1 dozen muffins
1 soft, ripe avocado, mashed
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 cup milk (use dairy milk, or swap for your preferred milk of choice)
1/2 cup Gefen Applesauce
1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour, such a Glicks (you can also use whole wheat)
1/2 cup Gefen Cocoa or other unsweetened cocoa
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup dark chocolate chunks or chips
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and use a light oil spray or paper liners to line muffin trays.
Place the wet ingredients (mashed avocado, maple syrup, milk, applesauce, olive oil, and vanilla in a food processor and blend until completely smooth).
In a separate mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa, baking powder, cinnamon, and chocolate chunks) and stir to combine.
Using a large spoon or spatula, gently fold the avocado mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, evenly divide the muffin mixture into the greased muffin trays.
Bake the muffins for around 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are completely cooked through. You can test the muffins by inserting a toothpick into the middle. The muffins will be done when the toothpick comes out with little to no crumbs. Place onto a wire rack to cool.

These cupcakes are delicious for a healthy snack! I left them a bit gooey…
I don’t enjoy writing negative reviews but I am frustrated by how terrible these came out. A real waste of time and ingredients. I followed the recipe perfectly
