These hearty whole grain muffins contain 18 grams of natural sugars, 6 grams of fiber, and just over 200 calories. They are sweetened with dates, carrots, and raisins, and contain no additional sugar.
But don’t let that fool you into thinking they aren’t delicious! Ingredients like toasted wheat bran, buttermilk, applesauce, cinnamon, ginger, vanilla, and almond extract pack these muffins with so much flavor you’ll forget they’re good for you.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. These muffins can also be frozen. I like to wrap them individually and place them in a ziptop bag before putting them in the freezer.

The recipe is a family favorite that has been tested and perfected over several decades. The cake is delicious enough to be served on its own, but my favorite way to eat it is slathered with Cream Cheese Buttercream & Salted Caramel Rum Sauce.
Roasted Carrots and Dates: Roasted carrots and dates are an easy and delicious vegetable side dish that requires only about 10 minutes of hands-on preparation and can be served with anything and everything.
