Cozy Carrot Turmeric Muffins

Despite the fact that spring has made a few appearance this month, ’tis still the season for cozy Foods! I love a good cupcake (correction: LOVE) but I like to keep my refined sugars and highly processed flours/foods to a minimum on the regular, and indulge when I’ve got a craving. And this recipe made with Further Food Superfood Turmeric.

To make these “breakfast safe” I used gluten free rolled oats to make the “flour” base. For a touch of sweetness, I used mashed banana and a hint of honey. Greek yogurt and fresh shredded carrot add the moisture and texture you need for the perfect bite. But what’s the real star of the show? You’ve seen it in other recipes because I can’t stop using a bit of it in everything….

Further Food Superfood Turmeric

At this point, we’ve all seen/heard TURMERIC somewhere. The question for many is, “Well what the heck does it even do?” Let me help you out.

Turmeric is a clinically proven anti-inflammatory herb
The turmeric tonic also contains adaptogenic herbs and superfoods that may enhance mood and mental clarity, and may be pain reducing
The tonic also contains ginger which can aid digestion
It tastes great and makes things delightfully bright ❤
I’m a fan of bright flavors, but gosh darn it it’s warm spice season! (despite it being in the upper 60s as of late…) Are you’re ready to have the perfect breakfast, snack, and dessert on hand all week? Thought so.

Further Food Commentary:

Turmeric is a power spice! The powder comes from the turmeric root and is known for its anti-inflammatory benefits. Consuming it with black pepper increases the absorption, but you don't even have to think about that when you use Daily Turmeric Tonic. It has a super mix of spices and adaptogenic herbs for maximum anti-inflammatory effects. We can't forget about the great nutritional power of carrots as well. It's great to put them into muffins to add an extra vitamin C and A boost to your breakfast or snack.
