Morning Glory Muffins
May 3, 2011
Serve this wonderful satisfying soup for the main course and finish with a green salad. Perfect for casual entertaining! And the good news is that this meal is elegant, yet easy on the budget!
Moist and pleasantly spiced, these cupcakes are like mini carrot cakes. If you prefer, you can omit the nuts.
A double dose of ginger (ground and crystallized) brings these moist, carrot-filled cupcakes to life – and a swirl of cream cheese icing takes them over the top! If you like, garnish each cupcake with chopped crystallized ginger.
You can double this recipe to have enough on hand to simmer up as needed. Serve with our Corn Muffins with Green Onions (recipe link below).
Make your hosts glad they invited you to visit. Present them these special muffins in a napkin-lined basket. Home economist Jennifer MacKenzie recommends you use very ripe bananas.
