If you are looking for a different muffin recipe give these Morning Glory Muffins a try. These muffins have everything…carrots, apples, raisins, coconut and nuts. They are a delicious and satisfying breakfast or snack. Your home will smell delightful when these are baking in the oven. I always make a double batch of these because they freeze great too.
Morning Glory Muffins

- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 2 cups shredded carrots
- 1 large apple, peeled, cored and shredded
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line 12 muffin tins with paper liners.
- In a large bowl or mixer, mix together flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- Stir in the carrot, raisins, nuts, coconut, and apple.
- In a separate bowl, beat together eggs, oils, applesauce and vanilla.
- Stir egg mixture into the carrot/flour mixture, just until it is moistened.
- Scoop batter into prepared muffin tins and fill 3/4 full.

- Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

I made these last night but I had enough leftover batter to make 20 mini muffins. Did you use regular size muffin pans or larger ones?
Hi Amy! I used regular muffin pans and I did have a little extra batter left over, and I did the same as you. I made a few mini ones too:)
