1/2 cup coconut oil

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

2 tablespoons ground flaxseed

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 cup rolled oats + 2 tablespoons for topping

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1/3 cup water

muffin tray

whisk

bowl

oven

microwave

ice cream scoop

wooden spoon

toothpicks

wire rack

frying pan

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease the cups of a 12-cup, standard-size muffin tin. In a small bowl, add the flaxseed meal and water. Stir to combine. Set aside.In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup oats, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.Place the coconut oil in a microwave-safe, medium-size bowl. Microwave at 50% power in 20-second increments until just melted. Remove from the microwave and stir in the carrots, almond, milk, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Add the flaxseed mix; stir to combine. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon just until combined. Divide the batter between muffin tins; just over 1/3 cup per tin (I use a trigger-handle ice cream scoop). Top with the remaining 2 tablespoons oats. Bake the muffins until the tops bounce back when lightly poked and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 15-18 minutes. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then carefully remove them from pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Food Joke

When Bill and Hillary first got married, Bill said, "I am putting a box under our bed. You must promise never to look in it." In all their 30 years of marriage, Hillary never looked. However, on the afternoon of their 30th anniversary, curiosity got the better of her and she lifted the lid and peeked inside. In the box there were 3 empty beer cans and $1,874.25 in cash. After dinner, Hillary could no longer contain her guilt and she confessed, saying, "I am so sorry. For all these years I kept my promise and never looked in the box under our bed. However, today the temptation was too much and I gave in. But now I need to know why do you keep the empty cans in the box?" Bill thought for a while and said, "I guess that after all these years you deserve to know the truth. Whenever I was unfaithful to you, I put an empty beer can in the box under the bed to remind myself not to do it again." Hillary was shocked, but said, "I am very disappointed and saddened, but I guess after all those years away from home on the road, temptation does happen and I guess that 3 times is not that bad considering the number of years we've been together." They hugged and made their peace. A little while later, Hillary asked Bill, "So why do you have all that money in the box?" Bill answered, "Well, whenever the box filled up with empty cans, I took them to the recycling center and redeemed them for cash."
