Creed protein muffin recipe

CREED Vanilla Cupcake Carrot Coffee Bread Muffins

There’s something about the natural sweetness and colour of carrots that make them extremely festive and fitting for Fall!
This recipe has all the flavour of carrot cake with the chewy tenderness of bread, all in a muffin form: Talk about a triple threat!
In addition to the carrots sweetness, the raisins and CREED Vanilla Cupcake adds the right amount of sweetness and vanilla flavour without needing to traditionally add more sugar or vanilla. 
The natural tang of the Greek yogurt replaces what cream cheese or sour cream frosting would do, while giving the muffins an incredible sheen and crust.
Lastly, the coffee rounds out all the flavours by tying in the sweet and earthiness of the carrots with a nutty, toasty bitterness.
