morning glory muffins with oat topping

Today I felt like making some awesome muffins, but I didn’t want them to be too sweet, so I decided to make up my own version of morning glory muffins, which are usually made with some combination of wheat, cinnamon, apple, pineapple, carrots, raisins, fruit, and coconut. It’s like a cross between carrot cake and bran muffins. My version has bran, oatmeal, cinnamon, raisin,, carrots, pineapple, and blueberries! I wasn’t expecting too much from them, maybe a good afternoon treat, but definitely not a blog post. But after trying them I was so pleased with how they turned out, I just HAD to share them! Seriously, these are some of the best muffins I’ve ever had, and are definitely the best muffins I have ever made up a recipe for. So if I were you I’d get some ingredients, turn on your oven, and start makin’ these babies.

  1. Hi Sarah. I really want to make the Morning Glory Muffins, but I am wondering if bananas were left off the recipe? You mentioned that your version has bananas, but it is not listed in the ingredients. Could you clarify this for me? I will, hopefully, try them tomorrow. I like baking for my family, and I’m sure they will enjoy. Thank you!!!!!!

  2. Just made these this morning for my kids and husband! They sounded so good I had to run out and buy bran and crushed pineapple. They were absolutely amazing! The one thing is that they leaned a little sweet for our taste as a morning muffin, I think next time I’ll cut the white sugar in half. The butter is a great choice, though, they taste really decadent! And I couldn’t get over how wonderfully buttery and sweet and pineapple-y they smelled while baking!
