Sugar Free Morning Glory Muffins

If you need a muffin in the morning, these are the ones for you. Filled with carrots, apples, apple sauce, raw honey, ginger and cinnamon. They won’t give you that sugar rush or crash. They will give you a little bit of flax, whole wheat and coconut oil to start your day.

Basically the perfect way to say “Good Morning”, if you ask me.

Carrots, Raisins, apples and flax…high fives all around.

Double the recipe.

Yes, if you double this recipe, you will have ALOT of muffins. BUT, they freeze so well. Leave them on your countertop to thaw, heat them in a low oven or toast them….and my favorite part, spread some salted butter in the middle.
