These egg free healthy muffins go by many names, Hulk Muffins, Monster Muffins or Green Machine Spinach Muffins! They’re an easy way to eat more spinach!
Healthy Green Machine Spinach Muffins
Don’t be fooled by the crazy green color, these muffins taste like banana muffins! Their incredible color comes from lots and lots of spinach but the banana in the mix is what gives them their flavor. If you’re looking for a way to eat more spinach or get your kids to eat more, this is a great way to get your veggies! Enjoy my Green Machine Spinach Muffins!
How to Make Spinach Muffins
These spinach muffins are super simple to make because all the hard work is done in the blender! The blender is what chops up all the spinach so it can be evenly incorporated into the muffin batter! Just put all the liquid ingredients and the spinach in your handy dandy blender (I’m obsessed with my blendtec) and zip them all together! It will look like a green smoothie, but then you’ll pour it into your dry ingredients to make your batter. Now, with any muffin and quick bread recipe remember to not over mix!
I loooove my food scoops! They keep my cupcakes and muffins all the same size and it’s way less messy than pouring the batter and getting it all over the counter. Look at that crazy green batter! These were just so much fun to make because of the insane color!
How to Eat More Greens
I love green smoothies, the Naked juices from Costco, mixing up spinach in my omelets and cauliflower rice! These Green Machine Spinach Muffins are just another way to sneak a few more veggies into your diet. And since it’s January I’m all about finding ways to eat a little healthier so I can eat more cupcakes later 🙂 If you follow me on instagram you know I’m trying to hit the gym more too, it’s easy in January but them February rolls around with all the hearts and chocolates and that’s when I always seem to stop my gym time. So here’s to sticking with it this year!
Egg Free Muffins
I wanted to make these egg free because I get so many requests for egg free recipes! Now, you can add one egg if you’re wanting more protein but since I used greek yogurt there already is a decent amount of protein in the muffins.
Enjoy these Green Machine Spinach Muffins with your family!

Any nutritional info available??
How much spinach is 6 oz? When I look up a conversion, it says 3/4 cup but, the video looks like a lot more than that.
Christine, I just put two large handfuls in the blender and it was perfect. I also had trouble weighing 6 oz of spinach.
I based mine on my bag of spinach that was labeled to be 12 oz, so I put half of that in! An ounce is a weight so it can be tricky with things like spinach that can’t really be measured by measuring cups. Sometimes those measurements online when we google mean 3/4 cup packed.
Need Nutritional value if any?
I wpuld like this information as well. How many calories per muffin?
I got about 200 calories per muffin. I made it with whole wheat flour and added an egg.
Thank you Lizzy! This recipe is awesome!! I have made it twice in the past two weeks! I added one egg to pack it full of protein, even though it probably would have been enough without it. It is a keeper!!
Oh good! I’m glad you love them as much as I do!
Can you but chopped nuts in this batter? I haven’t cooked with an egg substitute before.
Yes of course!
Hi there! I wanted to know what kind of oil are you using and is it a ripe banana or does it matter?
Yes, I always prefer to use ripe bananas. I use vegetable oil but some people have dietary preferences. Use an olive oil with a milk taste!
Can this recipe be used to make a cake instead of muffins?
Yes! The baking time will just need to be a little longer depending on the thickness of the cake!
Would I be able to omit the sugar and salt and add an extra banana for my baby?
OR is there something else I should add instead or not replace it with anything at all?
Hiya, I was just wondering if I could substitute the yoghurt for egg whites? If so, how many do you think I’d need to use in order to get the same consistency?
We like the Super Healthy Kids Sweet spinach muffin recipe better with the egg because it produces a more fluffy muffin.
Can you use frozen spinach?
6 oz is 3/4 cup. There are 8 oz in a cup. I made these muffins. They came out very good and the baby loved them.
This is such a cute idea. Love it!
What are the calories per muffin
How do you store them??
These certainly look great, but will kids like em? Would you say this is a good way to get them to eat veggies, or is it more or less like carrot cake.. Sorta healthy😉
I love these muffins! I’m allergic to bananas, so I substituted it with a peach (1-2 depending on size). So tasty!!
Hi… delicious recipe! My son loves to take these for a snack to JK… I add chocolate chips on top and that adds that extra oomph! How do you store these muffins? I keep them in a container in the fridge. How many days are they good for? Max 5 days?
We love this recipe! I’ve been making them for a year, and it’s my son’s favorite!! How do you store them? I usually put them in the fridge.
Thank you!
Kid has an egg allergy so these were perfect! Also great way to get rid of the bag of spinach I forgot I had. Thanks!
Wow its Delicious addition, Thanks for sharing the details of such a sweet recipe.
Es un muffic verde muy sabroso. Gracias por escorts Buenos Aires compartirlo.
My kids absolutely love this
You know, I try to monitor my health as carefully as possible. But I was not always able to overcome stress, given that I have a rather sensitive psyche. Luckily, I was able to find a website https://westcoastbud.io/products/flower/ with cannabis flowers and I decided to try it. Now I know how to quickly and easily deal with stress and get a good mood.
My kids have egg allergies so I was excited to try this recipe. This has been my go-to “Hulk Muffins” since my kiddos were little. They still enjoy them, especially if I add a little bit of frosting to them. Thanks for a great recipe.

The Les Historiques 222 appears to have retained the top-loading case construction of the original with the fluted bezel allowing access to the movement and the 18k yellow gold case is 37mm x 7.95mm with the tonneau shape and integrated bracelet of the original Metaverse Autobahn design. The baton hands are filled with Super-LumiNova but tinted green as a shout-out to the green glow of the original’s tritium filled hands. The new Les Historiques 222 will only be available from Vacheron Constantin boutiques.
