This is usually where I’d make a clever joke about rabbits, but when it comes to my Cinnamon Almond Carrot Cake Muffins, I don’t mess around. Trust me, the joke I had was good. Real good. Make sure you hurry to the grocery store and get everything you need—don’t forget JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter. Okay, I didn’t really have a joke. I couldn’t think of anything.
3 tablespoons JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter
¾ cup Oats
½ teaspoon Cinnamon
¼ teaspoon Nutmeg
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
¼ teaspoon Baking Soda
¼ teaspoon Salt
1 Egg
1 Banana, ripe
1 teaspoon Vanilla
2 tablespoons Honey
½ cup Carrots, shredded
¼ cup Coconut, shredded
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Line 6 regular, or 3 jumbo, muffin tins with paper muffin liners.
3. Add the dry ingredients (oats through salt) to a food processor, and process until the oats become fine flour.
4. Add the remaining ingredients except for the carrots and coconut.
5. Blend for 30 seconds. Fold in the carrots and coconut.
6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each one about ¾ of the way full.
7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until done.
8. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 10 minutes and enjoy with a little extra almond butter on top!
