INGREDIENTS
1 cup
cooked and cooled quinoa
3/4 cup
firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup
coconut oil (melted)
1/2 cup
Greek yogurt- You could add plain (vanilla or honey flavored)
Cook's note: I have started replacing the yogurt with applesauce for a dairy-free option and these muffins are equally as delicious with this substitution.
1 tsp
vanilla extract
2
eggs (room temperature, beaten *)
1 cup
loosely packed (grated carrots)
1/2 cup
walnuts (chopped)
3/4 cup
plus 1 tablespoon whole wheat flour
3/4 cup
plus 1 tablespoon almond flour
1 tsp
baking soda
1/2 tsp
salt
1 tbsp
chia seeds (optional)
* Vegan substitutions: For the eggs (substitute 1/2 cup applesauce + 2 teaspoons baking powder. For the greek yogurt, substitute 1/2 cup soy or coconut yogurt.)
