Better Morning Glory Muffins image

Traditional morning glory muffin recipe, tweaked to make it heartier and tastier. Half the fat, less sugar, whole wheat flour, and ground flax seed improve the muffin without anyone in my family knowing the difference. Oh, and dried cranberries instead of raisins. Even the kids love these!

FLAX N' FIBER MORNING GLORY MUFFINS



Flax N' Fiber Morning Glory Muffins image

This is a recipe I found using Fiber One bran cereal. I'm trying to get more whole grains and fiber in my family and this one is a winner! Each muffin has about 5 grams of fiber and because of the cereal being fortified with vitamins, and the milk they contain calcim, folic acid, iron and Vitamin A.

HEALTHIER MORNING GLORY MUFFINS



Healthier Morning Glory Muffins image

This recipe is the hybrid morning glory muffin recipe that I have developed, after making many different recipes that either had a tonne of oil in them, or were much sweeter than I care for. These are very tasty and have less oil and sugar than some other recipes.

Time 45m

Yield 24 muffins, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 cups grated apples (I used 2 large cortlands)
1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
3/4 cup raw sunflower seeds
2 cups grated carrots (~2 large carrots)
3/4 cup raisins
1 cup milk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat over to 400 degrees F.
  • On a baking sheet, spread a layer of coconut and sunflower seeds. I placed coconut on one side and sunflower seeds on the other, but ended up mixing them together lated on. These will toast very quickly, so make sure they don't burn!
  • Meanwhile, you can start grating the apples and the carrots. Place in a large mixing bowl, and add raisins to the mixture. When the coconut and sunflower seeds are toasted, put 3/4 of them in with the apples and carrots, and reserve 1/4 for a topping. In the same bowl, mix in the milk, eggs, vanilla, and oil.
  • In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Next, add the whole wheat flour, all of the spices, brown sugar, and cane or white sugar, mix thoroughly.
  • Put in lined paper muffin cups, and bake in pre-heated oven for ~15-20 minutes. They are done when a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Enjoy!
