Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond meal
  • 1 cup whole rolled oats (or gluten-free)
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts
  • ½ cup raisins, optional
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 85 grams unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup grated carrot (about 2 carrots)
  • 1 cup grated zucchini (about 1 zucchini)
  • ½ cup honey
  • ½ cup dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips, optional
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F or 180 degrees C.
  2. Grease a 12-cup standard muffin tin with butter, oil, or paper muffin cups.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients – almond meal, oats, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and spices.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, eggs, and butter.  Fold in the grated zucchini, carrots, and chocolate chips. Pour the mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until all combined.
  5. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, so the mixture is three-quarters full.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the muffins are nicely browned on top.
  7. Allow muffins to cool and then store in an airtight container in the fridge or in the freezer.
