    This Muffin Recipe comes from an old family cookbook. It may be an old recipe but these Ginger Molasses Muffins are still some of my favorite muffins to make.

    The flavor of these ginger molasses muffins reminds me of molasses cookies. Not surprising as this muffin recipe has a generous amount of molasses in it but it doesn't overwhelm your taste buds. On the other hand, a little ground ginger goes a long way!

    This recipe will yield 6 muffins unlike many recipes that make a dozen. Not a big deal if you are a family of 1 or 2 but if you are making these muffins for a larger crowd, I would suggest doubling the ingredients.

    I like to use Coconut Oil as much as I can when baking but if you don't have any on hand you can use the same amount of melted butter. Coconut Oil does not really have any taste to it so it will not affect the flavor of these delicious muffins.

    💭 Ingredient Substitution

    If you don't have any molasses on hand you can substitute for some dark corn syrup.

      These ginger molasses muffins are great. They are moist and even moist on the third day. I made a double batch because of my big family. Great recipe.
