MORNING GLORY MUFFINS<br />

RECIPE BY KYRA MUELLER-YAMAMOTO OF KYRIOUS.CO<br />

Muffins have always been a favorite grab-and-go breakfast food of mine<br />

but it’s always been hard to find a healthy version. These Muffins sneak<br />

in Fruits, Veggies, Nuts and even Adaptogens to set you on your best<br />

morning yet!<br />

INGREDIENTS FOR MUFFINS:<br />

3 cups Almond Flour<br />

¼ cup Protein Powder of choice<br />

2 Ripe Bananas<br />

3 T Almond Butter<br />

½ cup Pumpkin Puree (canned or homemade)<br />

½ cup Shredded Carrots<br />

½ cup Shredded Zucchini<br />

3 Fresh Eggs<br />

1 tsp Vanilla<br />

1 tsp Baking Soda<br />

1 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar<br />

¼ cup Real Maple Syrup<br />

¼ cup Melted LEVO Infused Coconut Oil<br />

1 T Cinnamon<br />

1 tsp Nutmeg<br />

Optional:<br />

¼ cup Golden Raisins<br />

½ cup Crushed Walnuts<br />

2 TB Tocotrienols<br />

1 tsp Reishi Powder<br />

INGREDIENTS FOR CRUMBLE TOPPING:<br />

¼ cup Melted Coconut Oil<br />

¼ cup Coconut Sugar<br />

½ cup Almond Meal<br />

½ tsp Cinnamon<br />

½ tsp Nutmeg<br />

METHOD<br />

Preheat oven to 350F. In a medium bowl mix together all dry ingredients,<br />

set aside. In a large bowl, first mash bananas then add pumpkin, almond<br />

butter, shredded zucchini and carrots. Whisk in eggs, coconut oil, apple<br />

cider vinegar, vanilla and maple syrup. Gently fold dry ingredients<br />

into wet ingredients until thick dough forms. Fold in both the golden<br />

raisins and walnut pieces. Using a small spoon, divide batter between<br />

paper-lined muffin tin cups. In additional small bowl, begin making the<br />

crumble topping by melting coconut oil. Add in coconut sugar, almond<br />

meal and spices. Crumble topping onto each muffin. Bake for 20-25<br />

minutes until a darker golden brown starts to form on each muffin top.<br />

Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes.<br />

Store muffins in airtight container up to a week in the fridge or enjoy<br />

fresh off the counter for up to 2 days. (Makes about 12 Muffins)<br />
