Morning glory muffin

A quick and easy breakfast option for busy bodies or just to have as a snack in between meals. This morning glory muffin is packed full of nutrients in the form of carrots, bananas, coconut, walnuts and apples!

I’ve been tired of chia puddings and oatmeal for breakfast lately so I decided to make muffins for breakfast instead. A perfect muffin for me is packed full of flavour, add-ins and stays moist on the inside.

What’s inside?

This morning glory muffin does just that because the shredded fruits and veggies in it help retain moisture in the muffin and its naturally sweetened with maple syrup and bananas. This is great for morning muffins because you don’t want to spike your sugar levels super high from eating sugary muffins for breakfast.

What do you like to have in your muffins?
