VEGAN APPLE-AWESOME CARROT MUFFINS

34

Hello everyone! Does anybody else crave some good-ole carbs like I do? Some days, there is nothing more that I would like to be doing than chowing down/inhaling some moist, delicious, and sexy muffins. (YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN;) So to stay healthy and on track with my clean-eating expedition, I created a recipe that is to die for. To be honest with you all as well, in hindsight, I would make slight changes to the batter I concocted, so this is abridged AND edited version of the recipe for you guys! I think it is important to be real with my #boosters, so here were go-my recipe for VEGAN APPLE-AWESOME CARROT MUFFINS!

VEGAN APPLE-AWESOME MUFFINS

(makes about 20 muffins)

1 tbsp. baking soda

1 tsp. vanilla extract

2 tbsp. cinnamon

1 tbsp. all-spice

1 tbsp. nutmeg

1/2 cup applesauce

1 tsp. salt

1/3 cup Agave Nectar

2 cups whole-wheat flour or whatever healthy flour you use

6 large carrots or 1 cup peeled and grated Organic carrots

3 Fuji apples, cored, peeled, and grated

1/2 cup raisins

1/2 cup walnuts or any nuts you would like

BAKING FIESTA TIME

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Line your baking muffin tins with cupcake liners. First, grate your carrots and apples in a very large bowl, add the rest of your wet ingredients, Agave syrup and applesauce. Then, in a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and spices. Slowly stir your dry ingredients into your wet ingredients, mixing well. Add in your nuts, stirring as you go. Add your mixture with an ice cream scoop to your muffin tins. 15-18 minutes later, when a fork comes out clean, you're all set!

Thank you all for reading and enjoying my posts! I so appreciate the good vibes- it makes my day truly.

Namaste,
