When I first heard about ‘Morning Glory Muffins’, I instantly knew I would love them as they are made with almost identical ingredients as ‘My Legendary Carrot Cake’. The missing ingredients are Apple and Shredded Coconut. So, I added them to my ‘My Legendary Carrot Cake’ as I reduced the amount of grated Carrots. I also used Pecans instead of Walnuts as the original recipe uses Pecans. Do you think you love them? You got to make them and taste. By the way, you can find the original ‘Morning Glory Muffins’ recipe on the internet.
