Savory Carrot Muffin. I want to add more vegetables to our diet by adding a vegetable to breakfast items. However, I added shredded carrots to the muffin. Not only that, the applesauce keeps the muffin moist while adding walnut gives the baked good a lovely crunch. Also, the ginger balances the muffin. The cinnamon gives the baked goods a wonderful aroma.

Savory Carrot Muffin Recipe

Ingredients

1 cup gluten-free flour
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ginger powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup oil
1/4 cup applesauce
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup shredded carrot
1/3 cup chopped walnut

Directions

Firstly, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Then, line the muffin liner in a baking tray.
Secondly, with a bowl add flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and salt. Whisk.
Take another bowl, stir together oil, applesauce, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract.
Next, mix dry and wet ingredients together. Following, fold in the carrots and nuts.
Furthermore, scoop the batter into the baking tray and sprinkle nuts on top.
Finally, bake for 25 minutes until golden brown.

Tips for baking muffin

First and foremost, do make freshly shredded carrots rather than using frozen ones. Not only that, freshly shredded carrots are easier to use and taste better. To save on time whenever there is time, do shred carrots and ahead of time and store them in the fridge. Thus, the carrots, applesauce, and maple syrup keep the muffin extra moist. Moreover, add walnut and chopped almonds on top for more texture. Therefore, I love the crunchiness of the nuts on top and in the muffin. Hence, top the muffin with orange zest for a refreshing smell.

Do try this homemade muffin. If you enjoy homemade baked goods, do try a homemade burger. I would love to try new recipes like Blueberry scones with rosemary.

Very Chocolatey Muffin

Very Chocolatey Muffin. Besides, I do not prefer something too heavy in the morning for breakfast. Therefore, the nut butter gives the muffin a good balance with the dark chocolate chip. Without a doubt, the nut butter makes the muffin a higher protein content. Moreover, this is good for growing children.

Very Chocolatey Muffin

Ingredients:

3 bananas

1 tbsp honey

1 3/4 almond flour

1/3 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/3 cup nut butter

3 eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp baking soda

pinch of salt

1 cup dark chocolate chip

Instructions:

Firstly preheat the oven to 350 degrees with a muffin pan, place muffin liner.
Then, in a medium-size bowl combine egg, honey, and vanilla extract.
Secondly, continue by adding flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nut butter. Whisk together.
Thus, add in the mashed bananas. Stir.
Finally, fold in the chocolate chips. Hence, scoop into the muffin pan and bake for 25 – 30 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let it cool.

High Protein

Furthermore, high protein is important to prevent craving and help the body to feel full. To make baked goods high in protein, do choose to use brown rice, nut flour, or oat flour. Last but not least, when making pancake batter mix in blended pumpkin seed for more protein and calcium. Everyone should try a high protein diet for a healthier you.

If you enjoy a very chocolatey muffin, do try a gluten-free blueberry donut. I would love to try new recipes like peanut butter oat cookies.
