Great not recipe! I love being able to exercise some creativity with baking but I have no confidence with regard to ratios, so having a formula like this is perfect. First batch I used parsnip and carrot, golden raisins (plumped in apple cider), pumpkin seeds, whole wheat and rye flour, cardamom, fennel and cinnamon, and 1/2 applesauce 1/2 sunflower seed oil. Going to have fun with these!

I wish more recipes were like this! I love the wiggle room of ingredients with precision of measurements. Mine are in the oven now. I stuck to basic flavors mostly - apple, carrot, banana, pumpkin, walnuts and raisins. They smell delicious already.

Love this format! great framework to experiment! Kitchen sink today - pears, dates, fresh ginger, pistachios, tahini, olive oil, unsweetened coconut, various flours, pumpkin pie spice. They won't make it to the freezer.

Hi Caroline, do you have by any chance some measurments in grams or ounces for your non-recipe? :) We don‘t use the cup-system in Germany, but I would really like to try these!

You can probably use ratios for a given volume. Find a "cup" that holds roughly the amount that your two hands cupped together would hold, and make the ratios match above. For the baking soda, baking powder, and salt, you can probable find gram weight conversions easily online. A teaspoon is roughly how much you would get with an espresso or coffee spoon dipped into the ingredient (flatter scoop, though, not rounded over the top of the spoon)

How do you prevent freezer burn on the ones you freeze? Do you tightly wrap them individually in plastic wrap after cooling? I find that with all those nooks and crannies on a rough surfaced muffin like this -- then there's that exposed surface area -- just don't do that well when thrown in a bag and tossed into the freezer. Please help. ;o)

Hi AJ—I haven't had this problem, even at the 3-month mark (though not many make it that long). I imagine double-bagging might help!

Very similar to my Harvest Muffin recipe (posted). It has zucchini, carrots, apples, nuts. All of the above sound good as well. BB

Looking forward to giving this a go! But you've given us too many delicious ideas, now I don't know which to try first...;)

I was surprised at how much I loved the ones made with parsnip. Let me know what you end up trying!
