These hearty muffins have everything in them like carrot, apple, coconut, pecans, and raisins. I tweaked a couple of recipes for morning glory muffins and made my own perfect recipe. I put in some whole wheat flour and use less sugar. Serve these moist muffins warm for breakfast. The key to perfect muffins is not to over mix them.

Time 35m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
3 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups grated carrots
1/2 cup peeled and finely chopped apple
1/2 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1/2 cup raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat oven oven to 350 degrees and grease a 12 hole muffin pan. In a medium mixing bowl stir together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt, set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl stir together butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix in carrot, apple, coconut, pecans, and raisins. Add flour mixture and stir just until blended (do not over mix!).
  • Divide batter between prepared muffin pan. Bake until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes. Let muffins cool in pan for 5 minutes. Transfer muffins to cooling racks to cool completley.

Tips:

  • Use fresh morning glories: Fresh morning glories have a sweeter and more delicate flavor than older ones. If you can't find fresh morning glories, you can substitute them with spinach or kale.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full: This will prevent the muffins from overflowing in the oven.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
  • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before serving: This will help them to set and hold their shape.
