Morning Glory Healthy Muffins

Mornings can be a stressful time for some families, even in the summer. The no school schedule, although very enjoyable, puts us all in a different morning schedule which can jeopardize the first {and most important} meal of the day.

Which is why I love making recipes that can be served any time and still be able to provide with fulfillment and nutrition.  BONUS if we can eat on the go! After all, summers are to be enjoyed to the maximum.

Making scrambled eggs three times in the morning, just wouldn’t work very well.  This muffin recipe is perfect because everyone can simply grab one at their own time and enjoy.  The best part is, this recipe is packed with delicious fresh produce such as carrots, zucchini and banana!

Make no mistake, these muffins were not named “Morning Glory” by accident.  These hearty and healthy muffins are so incredibly delicious, soft and moist! The type of muffin you won’t want to eat only one, but that’s okay because it’s packed with fruits, veggies, oats and raisins !
