avocado corn muffins

i love avocado and i love corn muffins so of course if i find a recipe for avocado corn muffins i'm gonna wanna bake some. these corn muffins are a bright green color and they definitely confuse people (are they lime? is it food coloring?). personally, i didn't taste much of an avocado flavor but it is really fun to make bright green corn muffins. also the avocado takes the place of using vegetable oil or butter, so if u have avocado and need corn muffins minus oil or butter, this is a great recipe.

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 large avocado
The how-to:

Pre-heat oven to 350°F.
In a large bowl mix flour, cornmeal, sugar baking powder and salt.
Cut and seed avocado. With a fork mash it very well in a separate bowl
Mix eggs into the flour, one at a time. Add milk and avocado. Mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
Grease muffin pan and pour mixture into them. It yields about 10-12 muffins.
Bake for 25 minutes or until the tops start to turn golden brown.
