These breakfast muffins are so so good!!! Its made with 100% whole wheat flour (atta) and is refined sugar free. I have used jaggery and raisins to sweeten them. Its also egg-less, dairy free and vegan. This recipe makes 12 jumbo muffins and one muffin will fill you up along with some fruits in the morning. I like to cut the muffins in half and slightly toast them and then have it after it has slightly crisped up on the edges for breakfast. These muffins can be stored in the refrigerator for up-to three days.
Since jaggery is hygroscopic, these muffins become very moist the next day. Toast the muffins in a toaster or oven for five minutes at 200C and then serve warm. Each Muffin loads roughly about 275 calories. These breakfast muffins are great. Do try.

Measurements Used
- 1 Cup – approx 240 ml
- 1 teaspoon – 5 ml
- 1 tablespoon 15 ml
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 50 grams cashews
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- 300 grams whole wheat flour (atta)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dry ginger powder
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
- 200 grams grated carrot
Wet Ingredients
- 165 grams jaggery
- 100 grams raisins
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven for 15 minutes at 200 C.
- Roast the cashews in coconut oil till golden. Remove to a plate and set aside to cool. Chop the cashews coarsely into small bits. Set aside.
- Roughly chop the jaggery and add it to a bowl. To the bowl add in the raisins and a cup of water. Grind everything to a puree. If you have an Indian mixie, add water little by little while grinding. Else the raisins wont get ground properly.
- To the puree, add in the oil, vinegar and vanilla. Whisk well. Set aside.
- Take a big bowl and keep a sifter on top of the bowl. Add in all the dry ingredients except cashews, fresh ginger and carrots to the sifter. Sift well so the dry ingredients can combine. Add in the cashews, fresh grated ginger and carrots.
- Add in the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients
- Mix gently with a spatula. Stop mixing when there is no more dry flour to be seen. Mixing for a long time will yield hard muffins. Avoid over mixing.
- Line jumbo muffin liners on a muffin tin and using an ice-cream scoop, scoop out the batter into the liners. Bake the muffins for 20-25 minutes on 200C. Check after 20 minutes.
- If a toothpick inserted comes clean, the muffins are done.
- Remove the pans and set aside to cool. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and use within three days.
- To serve – Toast the muffins in a toaster or oven for five minutes at 200C and then serve warm.
Notes
***If using regular cupcake liners, you will need to bake for lesser time as the liners are small. Usually the regular liners bake in about 15-18 minutes. Keep that in mind.***
