Kitchen Sink Muffins
My take on a morning glory muffin is packed with nuts, whole grains, fruits, and even a veggie!
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas (mashed)
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- 3 eggs
- ½ cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- ¼ cup orange juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup flax seed (ground)
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoon cinnamon (ground)
- 1 teaspoon ginger (ground)
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup walnuts (chopped, substitute pecans)
- 2 cups carrot (grated, from about 2 medium carrots)
- 1 cup apple (grated)
- ⅓ cup raw pepitas
- ¼ cup millet
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425F. Grease a muffin pan.
- In a large bowl, combine bananas, oil, eggs, brown sugar, orange zest and juice, and vanilla with a whisk until smooth.
- On top of the wet ingredients, add flax seed, flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and salt. Stir just 5-6 times with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. It wont be totally mixed, but its going to be ok.
- Add remaining ingredients and stir a few more times, just until combined.
- Transfer scoopfuls to the muffin pan.
- Bake in the 425F oven for 5 minutes, then reduce the heat to 350F and continue to bake for 18-20 minutes.
- Remove from pan and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes on a cooling rack.
