  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 242 g (1 ½ cups) Allulose Sweetener
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 large eggs , room temperature
  • ¾ cup avocado oil , grape oil, or expeller-pressed sunflower oil
  • ¼ cup fresh orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups carrots , peeled and shredded (about 4 large carrots)
  • 1 large Granny Smith apple , peeled, cored, and shredded

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375 °F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray or use cupcake liners. In a large bowl, whisk together the sifted whole wheat flour, monk fruit, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and orange zest.
  • In a separate bowl, beat together the eggs, salt, oil, orange juice, and vanilla extract. Add to the flour mixture, along with the raisins, carrots, apple, coconut, pecans, sunflower seeds, and wheat germ. Fold everything together just until combined and no pockets of flour remain, don't overmix.
  • Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling them all the way to the top. They will be very full. Bake the Sugar-Free Morning Glory Muffins for about 25 minutes, until domed and a cake tester inserted in the center of one of the inner muffins comes out clean.
  • Remove the healthy Morning Glory Muffins from the oven and let cool in the pan on a rack for about 5 minutes. Turn the muffins out onto the rack to cool completely. Cover and store at room temperature for up to 3 days. Enjoy our Morning Glory Muffins!
