These Eggless Chocolate Mini Muffins are low cal, no butter and vegan treats that come in a mini size for portion control.
When I was thinking about the mini treats, I thought I should bake some mini muffins, so that I could use the mini muffin tray that I have. I haven't used it for a while. Planning on this muffin, Hubby Dear wanted me to make him the apple banana brownie. So I made this batch for the kids without the whole nuts included in the batch.
Kids enjoyed it so much. They didn't know that banana was included in it. I sent this for their snack box and until their friends mentioned the banana flavour, Chinnu didn't know. By then the muffins got over. Anyway, before that, they had said they liked it and I will add some vanilla essence next time.
I thought these mini muffins are apt to share for this month's Kid's Delight event, guest hosted by Pavani themed on Mini Dishes.

Adding the nuts powder definitely enhances the taste. Never tried with both apple and banana puree in a cake !
Suma Gandlur says
Nut flour definitely enhances the flavor besides adding nutrition. And using fruit puree instead of fat is lot better.
