The most amazing Whole Wheat Apple Carrot Muffins! With apples, carrots, flax seeds, and whole wheat flour, they’re full of nutritional benefits.


Shana tova!! That’s Hebrew for happy new year! Hey guys, so I’m home from school today. Why, do you wonder? Because it’s the Jewish New Year!! So I’ve been baking all morning in preparation for tonight’s festivities and I’ll be leaving for temple about 15 minutes. However, before I share my delicious treats (next post, don’t worry!), you can try my new muffin recipe.

It’s actually a recipe that’s been floating around the internet for a while now, originally taken from the back of the Bob’s Red Mill flax seed bag. However, while making muffins for my health-obsessed sister Shaina I knew I needed to improve on the already-healthy muffins and still make them taste like heaven. These whole wheat carrot apple muffins are what I’ve come up with.

    Are the nutrition facts correct on this recipe?? I was going to make for a healthy dessert option until I read them. If it is correct then these are NOT healthy

      Hi Amy – not sure where you’re seeing nutritional info since these don’t have any nutritional info provided…

        I just added nutritional info though – you can decide whether you think they’re what you’re looking for based on that.
