Tips for Nailing This Recipe 

  1. Make it your own! It is a fantastic recipe that you can be flexible and take in multiple directions. Feel free to make it delicious by using the seeds, nuts and dried fruits that you like and have available.
  2. Bake the muffins for 6 minutes at 425F and then lower the heat. I learned this from my favourite food baking blog, Sallys Baking Addiction. She is a G and her recipes are incredible.
  3. The Trudeau Silicone Muffin Pan makes baking these muffins easier, especially when demolding them! 
  4. Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before removing from the muffin pan.

Instructions: 

  • Pre heat oven to 425 and prepare muffin tins with liners and cooking spray.
  • In one large bowl mix together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Whisk together and set aside.
  • In separate bowl, mix together the rest of the ingredients and mix thoroughly. Spend time here making sure the brown sugar is fully disolved.
  • Now, pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, fold everything together. Make sure to mix thoroughly to avoid any clumps of flour.
