Easy One Bowl Morning Glory Bread

Weren’t morning glory muffins already healthy? Not quite. A lot of our favorite breakfast treats present as healthy when they are really made of copious amounts of sugar and refined grains. This recipe took a classic, morning glory muffins, which present as a healthy breakfast and turned them into an easier and healthier take on the breakfast classic. Vegan and gluten-free, super moist and delicious, and comes together in only a single bowl under 15 minutes. You will never want to go back to your ways!
