Carrot Gingerbread Muffins & Blueberry Lemon Muffins

Muffins are such a great portable breakfast and snack.  I like both of these recipes because they are high in protein and contain some veggies or fruit.  These both come from the Practical Paleo cookbook. First is the Carrot Gingerbread Muffin recipe.   My hubby & I both love these, but the kiddos are so-so about them.  They have very strong spices in them.  The other muffin is a Lemon Blueberry Muffin.  This blogger left out the lemon juice, we used 4 Tbsp of fresh lemon juice in ours.  My kiddos liked the lemon flavor.  These both keep well in the fridge for a few days.

 
See the liners on these muffins?  They are parchment paper muffin liners.  A friend recommended them to me for paleo baking.  She was right, they come right off, no wasted muffin stuck to the liner!
