Healthy breakfast carrot cake muffins
Who said carrot cake had to be unhealthy?
These breakfast carrot cake muffins are packed with fiber, goodness and spices plus low in added sugar!
They’re great for batch cooking so that you have brekkie covered for a few days, they go really well with some nut butter and you can decide how sweet you want them!
Plus they contain lots of nutrition from both fruit & veg and have a decent amount of anti-inflammatory spices in them for good measure!
Pistachio lemon matcha muffins
With St Patrick’s day around the corner I always get inspired to cook some green recipes and matcha is one of my favourite ingredients to use that gives a nice green hue. It’s also packed with antioxidants and great for a caffeine boost other than coffee!
You can sub it for a greens powder if you prefer, its not essential just great for a boost!
This recipe can also be adapted to be vegan and gluten free.
Carrot cake flapjacks (dairy free)
Spiced, warming carrot cake flapjacks with no refined sugar & lots of healthy fiber & fats from oats, rye, flaxseeds and fruit/veg. I purposely lowered the amount of fat from oil that standard recipes use but they still came out great with a slightly crisp texture!
I also made these dairy free by using coconut oil instead of butter which works really well with the carrot cake flavours. Perfect for winter time when carrots are so easy to get & the spices are lovely on cold mornings, plus they’re portable too for an on the go healthier snack!
