APPLE & CARROT "SUPERHERO" MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 12-cup standard muffin tin with paper muffin cups (I didn't because I have full faith in my muffin pan, but use them if you're uncertain).
• In a large bowl, combine the almond meal, oats, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and optional mix-ins, if using.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, eggs and butter. Whisk in the grated apple and carrots. Pour the mixture into the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
• Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each to the brim. Bake until the muffins are nicely browned on top and a knife inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Allow muffins to cool completely before storing.
• Store leftover muffins in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer. If you like them warm, reheat them on low power in the microwave.

• Beat together oil, sugars, eggs, milk, and vanilla in a large bowl.
• Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture until well combined.

SPICED CARROT OATMEAL MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease or place cupcake wrappers in a standard-size, 12-cup muffin pan.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and ginger.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, applesauce, brown sugar, canola oil, egg, and carrots.
• Pour the wet ingredients over the dry and whisk just until all ingredients are incorporated.
• Divide the mixture between the muffin cups. I like to use an ice cream scoop for this - so easy! Cups should be filled just about to the top.
• Bake until muffin tops spring back when poked and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20-22 minutes
• Allow to cool for about 10 minutes before removing from the muffin tin.
• Serve plain or with butter (or vegan butter) if desired.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 - 3 days or freeze.

APPLE CARROT MUFFINS

Steps:

• Heat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line 12 baking cups with paper liners or lightly coat with nonstick spray. Set aside. If using nuts for the mix-ins, toast them in the oven now: Spread the nuts into an even layer on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F for 8 to 12 minutes (for pecan or walnut halves), until they are lightly browned and fragrant. Transfer the nuts immediately to a cutting board; roughly chop and set aside.
• Place the coconut oil in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave just until melted (about 30 seconds on high). Set aside to cool to room temperature.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and salt. Add the grated carrot and apple and fold to combine.
• To the bowl with the coconut oil, add the eggs, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth. If the coconut oil resolidifies, warm it in the microwave in 15-second bursts, and stop as soon as you can stir the mixture back together. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in the nuts or any other mix-ins.
• Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Place the pan on a wire rack and let the muffins cool in the pan for 4 minutes. Gently transfer the muffins to the rack to finish cooling completely.
• For the icing: Whisk together the powdered sugar, honey, and 1 teaspoon milk. Continue to add milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, until your desired consistency is reached. Drizzle over the top of the cooled muffins.

Steps:

• Sift dry ingredients together. Combine wet ingredients and stir into dry ingredients. Mix well. Stir in apples. Fill muffin tins full. Bake for 15-20 minutes @ 350. Makes 15.
• I like to add 1/8 Celsius flak seed and 1/8 Celsius millet for extra fiber.
• Also, you can use buttermilk or 2 % milk. Or plain yogurt if you must.
