Steps:

• Run pineapple and carrots through juicer according to manufacturer's instructions. Pour juice into a container and reserve pulp in a bowl. Run zucchini through juicer and add zucchini pulp to pineapple-carrot pulp. Discard zucchini juice.
• Measure 2 cups pineapple-carrot juice. If juice doesn't reach 2 cups, add enough water to make 2 cups. Bring pineapple-carrot juice and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Measure 1 cup cooked quinoa and set aside to cool.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 16 silicon muffin cup molds and place on a baking sheet or line a muffin tin with paper liners.
• Sift whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg together in a bowl.
• Mix applesauce, yogurt, sugar, eggs, coconut oil, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Stir applesauce mixture, small amounts at a time, into flour mixture until batter is just combined. Fold the reserved 1 cup cooked quinoa, hempseed, raisins, and pineapple-carrot-zucchini pulp into batter; allow to sit for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Spoon a heaping 1/3 cup batter into each muffin cup.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, 23 to 27 minutes. Cool muffins in tin for 5 minutes before removing from muffin cups.

GLUTEN FREE MORNING GLORY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F.
• Whisk together the oat flour, protein powder, baking soda, cinnamon, all spice, ginger, cloves and salt in a large bowl.
• In another bowl, add the yogurt, maple syrup, carrots and plant milk, whisk until combined.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients in with the wet, about 1/4 of the dry ingredients at a time. Use a spatula to fold this in until no dry flour remains.
• Add the walnuts and craisins and stir until they are equally distributed.
• Using a scoop or large spoon, scoop the batter into a greased muffin tin. This will make 6 large muffins or 10-12 small muffins.
• Top each muffin with a sprinkling of hemp seeds and oats before baking.
• Bake at 350F for 25-30 minutes or until you can insert a toothpick and it comes out clean. These muffins will take a bit longer than your average muffin due to the high level of moisture in the batter!
• Let the muffins cool in the muffin tin and then serve.

Steps:

• Preheat over to 400 degrees F.
• On a baking sheet, spread a layer of coconut and sunflower seeds. I placed coconut on one side and sunflower seeds on the other, but ended up mixing them together lated on. These will toast very quickly, so make sure they don't burn!
• Meanwhile, you can start grating the apples and the carrots. Place in a large mixing bowl, and add raisins to the mixture. When the coconut and sunflower seeds are toasted, put 3/4 of them in with the apples and carrots, and reserve 1/4 for a topping. In the same bowl, mix in the milk, eggs, vanilla, and oil.
• In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Next, add the whole wheat flour, all of the spices, brown sugar, and cane or white sugar, mix thoroughly.
• Put in lined paper muffin cups, and bake in pre-heated oven for ~15-20 minutes. They are done when a toothpick comes out clean.
• Enjoy!
