My toddler is in a carrot loving phase and what better way to celebrate her latest vegetable love than to add them to her next favorite food, muffins!
This recipe of healthy muffins for toddlers packs in carrots, zucchini and oats and is the perfect add to the toddler breakfast rotation.
I make a big batch on the weekend and freeze them for a quick no cook breakfast on the weekdays when we want to grab something and leave the house.
These muffins are also low-sugar, each muffin comes to about 5g of added sugar and rich in fiber and satiety.
We usually pair them with a glass of milk or if we are headed out the door I spread a little butter on the top before heating them in the microwave and then grabbing them to go. A little added fat helps with extra fuel and satiety for my little one.
These are also great as a daycare or preschool snack box addition.
Here is the recipe,
