MORNING GLORY BREAKFAST COOKIES

Steps:

• Pre-heat- Heat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
• Wet ingredients- In a microwave- safe dish, melt the coconut oil. Stir in the applesauce, vanilla, honey and eggs.
• Dry ingredients- Measure out the rolled oats, white whole wheat flour, ginger, cinnamon, baking powder and flax, and mix into the wet ingredients until well combined. Fold in the carrots, coconut, dried cranberries and pecans.
• Form the cookies- Using a measuring cup, scoop ¼ cup portions onto the parchment paper and pat into circular 'cookies' about ½ inch tall with a spoon. The batter will be soft.

MORNING GLORY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and arrange two racks evenly spaced in the oven. Line two muffin pans with paper muffin cups.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and vanilla. Add the carrots, apple, pineapple, pecans, coconut, and raisins and stir together. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until combined. Scoop the batter with a standard (2 1/4-inch) ice cream scoop (I use rounded scoops of batter) into the prepared muffin cups. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Place the pans on a baking rack to cool and serve the muffins warm or at room temperature.
