Ingredients

- ½ cup packed brown sugar or coconut sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon sea salt

- Fold in the raisins and almonds or pumpkin seeds.
- Divide the batter between the prepared muffin cups; they should be about ⅔ full.

Notes
Not a fan of Raisins? You can swap dried cherries, cranberries, or currants for the raisins.
