Grinch Muffins

Your heart will grow three sizes when you make these grinch muffins for your family and friends! They are so fun, especially to serve while watching the movie! My kids are huge fans of the original but no matter which movie your family loves these treats are the perfect snack to serve to complete the theme! Wait ... I didn’t tell you what makes these special! Sure you can throw green dye into anything and make it green, but anyone who knows me knows I try to avoid unnatural ingredients which includes artificial dyes. These muffins are made naturally green with spinach! Now before you Crinkle up your nose let me say this, YOU CANT TASTE THE SPINACH! These taste like banana muffins and they are delicious!
