Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 F
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork. Then add the carrots, yogurt, eggs, oil, brown sugar, and vanilla. Stir until well combined.
Stir in the baking soda and salt.
Add the flour and nuts. Don’t overmix! Fold together until the dry ingredients are just moistened.
Spoon into a greased muffin tin. I like to use a spring loaded scoop.
Bake the whole wheat version for 15 minutes and the gluten-free version for 25 minutes (or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean).
Run a knife along the outer perimeter of the muffins to loosen. Pop onto a cooling rack.
