MORNING GLORY MUFFINS



Morning Glory Muffins image

Hearty and healthy, these muffins are packed with grated apples, carrot, coconut, and golden raisins. Pepitas replace the usual walnuts. They're made with half whole-wheat and half all-purpose flour.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 1h

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup whole-wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup pepitas, finely chopped
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup packed dark-brown sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
1/3 cup whole milk
1 large carrot, peeled and grated (2 cups)
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored, and grated (1 1/4 cups)
1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup golden raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with baking cups. In a large bowl, whisk together both flours, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Reserve 1 tablespoon chopped pepitas; whisk the rest into flour mixture. In another bowl, whisk together oil, brown sugar, eggs, and milk until smooth. Stir in carrot, apple, coconut, and raisins. Make a well in flour mixture; pour in egg mixture and stir together until just combined (do not overmix). Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each all the way. Sprinkle tops with reserved pepitas.
  • Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in center of muffins comes out clean, 22 to 25 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes in tin, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your muffins will taste. If possible, use organic and locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Don't Overmix: Overmixing the batter can make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the Muffin Tins Properly: Fill the muffin tins about 2/3 full. This will prevent the muffins from overflowing.
  • Bake at the Right Temperature: The baking temperature will vary depending on the recipe. Make sure you follow the recipe instructions carefully.
  • Don't Overbake: Overbaking the muffins will make them dry and crumbly. Check the muffins for doneness a few minutes before the baking time is up.
  • Let the Muffins Cool: Let the muffins cool in the muffin tins for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

Golden glow muffins are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. They are easy to make and can be customized with a variety of ingredients. With a little planning and effort, you can create a batch of golden glow muffins that will be sure to impress your friends and family.
