These Paleo Morning Glory Muffins packed with nutritious carrots, coconut, pineapple, raisins and walnuts make for the perfect on the go breakfast treat to start the day!!
Hey Folks!! Happy Wednesday! I just returned from a Married Couple’s Enrichment Getaway held at Virginia Beach. It was such a beautiful spot right on the beach where God’s Morning Glory poured in at the crack of dawn during each and every one of the 4 days. Hubby and I had such an awesome time fellowshipping with other like-minded married couples in Christ. We cooked, we laughed, we cried, we prayed and we shared and discussed tips on creating successful marriages. Although we are all different in our own rights, we all share a great desire to have God’s Glory reflected in our marriages!!
So… as I’m reflecting on God’s glory in marriage, I thought I’d share these super delicious Paleo Morning Glory Muffins. These Paleo Morning Glory Muffins are on point!!! They are super moist and packed with carrots, coconut, pineapple, raisins and walnuts!!! They are gluten free, grain free and dairy free to boot! It is such a perfect morning treat with your coffee because it’s got just the right amount of sweetness for breakfast. Need an on-the-go breakfast?!?!?! These Paleo Morning Glory Muffins are right on time just like these Flourless Chocolate Chip Zucchini Muffins!!
You see, God wants to brings us from Glory to Glory in our careers, churches, relationships and yes, even our marriages!!! He does that when we draw closer to Him. He can help us to grow when we’re in relationship with Him and that ultimately will bring Glory to His name as well as in our God ordained marriages. Amen?!?!?! Say Grace and enjoy!!

These healthy muffins look so moist and delicious. Love the idea of using pineapple as a sweetener.
Thanks Rebecca!! 🙂
That is a yummy looking muffin!
Thanks Renee!!! 🙂
Oh my goodness these look moist and delicious – a great way to power you up for the getaway, enjoy!
They are super moist!! I just love working with almond flour!
These muffins are absolutely delicious AND approved by a picky toddler!
What a SCORE!!! Glad they were a success!!
Could I add one apple, grated to these? Would I need to adjust any of the other ingredients? Thanks!
Hi Amanda! You would probably need to rid either the pineapple or the carrots in order to achieve the right texture. The addition of the apple to everything else may make things too moist. Let me know how they turn out for you.
They came out really good! The first batch was a little too moist, but the second batch was just right. First batch was in a silicone muffin tin and the second was in a normal muffin tin…might have cooked better in the tin? Either way, they’re delish! Thanks for the great recipe!
Hi Amanda!! I’m so glad these worked out for you!! They are such a treat!! 🙂
Will flax egg work in these? Will zucchini, if squeezed dry, work?
Hi Zavier! I’ve never tried either of these suggestions with this recipe in particular. However, I would imagine that flax eggs would work as substitutes for the eggs. Let me know how it turns out for you!! 🙂
Hello! HOw can I replace the pineapple?
tIA
Hi Daniela! Just omit it. Enjoy!!
How could I adjust this to make a loaf instead of muffins?
Thanks!
Hi Erika!!! Unfortunately, I haven’t tried these in a loaf pan but you night try my Pumpkin Loaf.

I tried these and they are pretty good! Would be good with a cup of tea. Next time I think I’ll add some apple!
Sounds great! I’m glad you enjoyed them!
