These green goodies get their sweetness from banana and their spooky color from a bowlful of spinach that kids can see but not taste.
Heat the oven to 350 degrees and line the muffin pan with cupcake liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together both flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
In a blender, puree canola oil, milk, and spinach until smooth. Then blend in banana and vanilla.
Fold the liquid mixture into the dry ingredients. Add the chocolate chips if you choose. Fill each prepared muffin well two-thirds full.
Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 18 minutes.
These muffins freeze well; I usually pop a frozen muffin in the girls' lunches and they're thawed just in time for lunch at school!
