Morning Glory Muffins

Morning Glory Muffins are a healthy, sweet, no-fuss treat that can be enjoyed anytime of day. The fun part is that you can add just about anything to them and they turn out delicious. 

These muffins make for a quick and healthy breakfast on the go, for a great snack, or to celebrate a special occasion. You can’t go wrong with Morning Glory Muffins.

Morning Glory Muffins

These muffins are one of my favorites because they are hearty and wholesome. They are made with 100% whole wheat flour, carrots, crushed pineapple, coconut, and a few other basic ingredients that you most likely have on hand. 

Everyone in my family devours these muffins and lovingly calls them bunny muffins because of the carrots. They have a great mixture of flavors- sweet with hints of spice cake.

We like to eat them for a quick morning breakfast or a grab and go snack. They freeze great too!
