Step-by-Step Instructions for Moist Apple Muffins for Babies
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 24-cup mini muffin pan.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, mash ripe bananas until smooth, then stir in grated apple and finely grated carrot. Add milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula until just combined, keeping a few lumps.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 16-20 minutes, checking for golden brown tops and a clean toothpick.
  7. Cool for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
