twd ~ Carrot Spice Muffins & Banana Peach Brekkie







I love baked goods packed with little treasures - carrots, nuts, seeds, raisins - each bite brings a new combination of tastes. I love Morning Glory muffins and always am tempted when I see one sitting in a pastry case, regardless if it's morning, noon, or night.



These carrot spice muffins are no disappointment. In fact, they are too darn good. The are moist and packed with some of my favorites - carrots, coconut, ginger, cinnamon, walnuts, and raisins! Now that's a mouthful.


I used half whole wheat flour and half white, which worked well. For breakfast, it's hard to eat just one delicious muffin so I paired it with my new favorite fruit combination. One lovely, ripe Georgia peach + one banana + a spoonful of sunflower seeds + a little bit of whipping cream poured over = yummers!





Thanks to Nancy of The Dogs Eat the Crumbs for this week's pick. Head over to her blog for the recipe.

Beautiful muffins! I'm super-intrigued by your 'brekkie' - it looks (and sounds) amazing! :)

Good looking muffins. I love things with add-ins, and I have made morning glory muffins with pineapple and diced apple. These were certainly a hit!

Your muffins look delicious and I love the way you describe the differences in each bite! From your brekkie I'm guessing you're a fellow Georgia Girl? I'm in Atlanta and there's nothing like Georgia peaches in the summer, although South Carolina ones are sometimes better. Shh, you didn't hear that from me!! Thanks for baking along with me this week.

You came up with the perfect breakfast. A little bit of fall spice from the muffins, with lovely summer fruit. Nice!
