Recipe by Cupcake-Princess

These hearty muffins have everything in them like carrot, apple, coconut, pecans, and raisins. I tweaked a couple of recipes for morning glory muffins and made my own perfect recipe. I put in some whole wheat flour and use less sugar. Serve these moist muffins warm for breakfast. The key to perfect muffins is not to over mix them.
