Protein Packed Carrot Muffins

  • Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
    • Grease a muffin tin or line it with muffin cups for easy removal.
  • Prepare the Dry Mix:
    • In a medium-sized bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
  • Mix the Wet Ingredients:
    • In a large bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, eggs, vanilla extract, grated carrot, blended tofu, dried fruit, and lemon zest until fully combined.
  • Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures:
    • Gently fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients. Mix just until combined; be careful not to overmix, as this can make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the Muffin Tin:
    • Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
  • Bake:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Cool and Store:
    • Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
    • These muffins freeze well for up to 2 months.
