Ingredients
  

Healthy Muffins- Gluten Free

  • 4 Cups Zucchini Grated
  • 1.75 Cups Carrots Grated
  • 1.25 Cup Golden Raisins Black Raisins are Fine
  • 1.5 Cups Greek Yogurt
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • ¼ Cup Butter Melted
  • ½ Cup Milk I use Whole Milk, but any is fine!
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 Tbsp Baking Powder
  • ½ tsp Baking Soda
  • 2 Cups Gluten Free Flour Blend I use King Arthur Measure for Measure
  • 1 Cup Brown Sugar
  • ¾ Cup Gluten Free Rolled Oats
  • 1 tsp Ground Ginger Powder
  • 1 Tbsp Ground Cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp Ground Nutmeg
  • 2 tsp Himalayan Pink Salt or 1 tsp Sea Salt

Honey Glaze (Optional)

  • 1 Tbsp Honey
  • 2 Tbsp Water
  • 1.5 Tbsp Raw Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F and line your muffin pans with parchment liners.
  • Combine the dry ingredients in a large sized mixing bowl (this includes the spices).
  • Grate the carrots and zucchini and set those aside.
  • Melt the butter, mix it in with the yogurt, milk, eggs, and vanilla in a smaller mixing bowl.
  • Pour the liquid ingredients into the larger dry ingredient bowl and whisk until your batter is uniform.
  • Fold in the grated zucchini, carrots, raisins.
  • Fill the batter about 80% up the muffin liners and place the muffins in the oven.
  • In a measuring cup, mix together 1 Tbsp Honey with 2 Tbsp Water. Set this aside for the last few minutes of baking.
  • Bake for 10 minutes at 400°F, then reduce your heat to 350°F and continue baking for another 5 minutes. If you're going to glaze the top, continue to step 10. If you're skipping the glaze, go to step 11.
  • Glaze the muffins with the honey and water mixture using a silicone brush, then sprinkle on a few crystals of raw sugar. Shut the oven door and continue baking.
  • After a total bake time of 18 to 20 minutes, poke a toothpick, bamboo skewer, or knife into a muffin to make sure it comes out clean and fully baked. If they're ready, remove the healthy muffins from the oven, and let them cool for 5-10 minutes before handling them.
  • Eat and Enjoy!
