Vegan Morning Glory Muffins

A great way to start a day is to have a healthy breakfast. These vegan morning glory muffins have layers of flavor, are packed with nutrients and fibers.

If you like a carrot cake you'll definitely love these muffins. The sweetness from maple syrup and mild bitterness from walnuts complement each other. Coconut pairs well with the exciting spices. Fresh lemon zest brings a burst of tart citrus to these irresistible muffins. Not only carrots and apple are nutritious but also provide moisture.

Also this recipe can be adjusted easily. You don't like walnuts? Use almonds instead. Don't have sunflower seeds? What about pumpkin seeds? Not keen on spiced muffins? Reduce spices or omit completely.

Does that sounds exciting? Let's get started!
