Marvelously flavorful and healthful Morning Glory Muffins are a lovely companion to your morning coffee or tea!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/3 cup coconut sugar
- 1 cup grated apple (1 medium apple, peeled cored and grated)
- 1 cup grated carrot (1 large carrot, peeled and grated)
- 3 Tbsp avocado oil
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups finely ground almond flour
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut *
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1/2 cup raw walnuts chopped
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-hole muffin pan with muffin papers or lightly spray with oil.
- Add the first six ingredients (eggs through vanilla extract) to a mixing bowl and whisk until well-combined. Add the remaining ingredients (almond flour through sea salt) to a separate mixing bowl and stir the dry ingredients until well combined.
- Pour the dry ingredients into the bowl of wet ingredients and stir well until everything is combined. The batter will be very thick.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling the holes 3/4 of the way up.
- Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until muffins are golden brown. Insert a digital thermometer into the center of one of the muffins to check its internal temperature. The muffins are ready if they are 190 degrees F or higher on the inside.
- Allow muffins to cool completely (at least one hour) before peeling off the muffin papers to consume. If you try to peel off the muffin papers while the muffins are still hot, they will stick to the papers. Enjoy!
Notes
*You can also use flaked coconut instead of shredded
