Good Morning Muffins

Are they a snack? Are they for breakfast? Are they a dessert?

bowl of flour, sugars, oats, spices
Dry ingredients – mix well
egg, applsauce and coconut oil
The first round of wet ingredients
carrots, zucchini. raisins, and shredded coconut
Round two of wet ingredients – a food processor works great to shred the apple and vegetables

When everything is mixed, it will still be lumpy. I use a spoon to scoop into muffin tins, fill to top and then use my finger to press it all in neatly.

These do freeze well. I wrapped them up in plastic wrap then put them all inside a freezer bag and froze them. This way you can grab and go!
