Easy Morning Glory Muffins
These morning glory muffins are easy to make and a glorious way to start any day. They combine the great taste and chewy texture of carrots with the wonderful flavors of apple, raisins, coconut, walnuts, and cinnamon.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ¼ cups white sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups shredded carrots
1 apple - peeled, cored and shredded
½ cup raisins
½ cup chopped walnuts
½ cup unsweetened flaked coconut
3 large eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line cups with paper liners.
Mix flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl; stir in carrots, apple, raisins, walnuts, and coconut.
Beat eggs, oil, and vanilla together in a separate bowl. Stir egg mixture into the carrot mixture until just moistened. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 20 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
