If you will take notice there is no sugar added to this recipe and all the flavors are natural.

I have listed below a website for the health benefits of unsulphered black strap molasses, which include stablization of blood sugar, relief from rheumatoid arthritis, lower cholestrol levels, healthy nervous system, and increased red blood cell production.

How to Make Healthy Black Strap Molasses Muffins

Step-by-Step

Line a muffin pan with 12 paper liners, and preheat the oven to 350 F.
Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg in a large bowl and mix with a wire whisk.
Stir the eggs, molasses, apple, carrot, walnuts, and oil together in a medium bowl, then pour into the flour mixture.
Stir gently with a wooden spoon until mixed, then divide among muffin tins and bake for about 17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of a muffin comes out clean.
Cool on a wire rack.
I usually make smaller muffins and make 18 using my silicone bakeware. It is your choice.
