Morning Glory Muffins

·

Oh my… these are tasty muffins. Since they are jam packed with fruit and veggies, I can pretend they are super healthy. If it is zucchini season, feel free to throw some in. Just discard as much liquid as you can from them or they will be gummy. We make jumbo muffins for this recipe so they have a real bakery feel. If you prefer regular sized muffins, you will get 12 from this recipe. Just reduce baking time by 10 minutes.
