Launched: New Morning Glory Muffin

I’m not a morning person. My family knows it’s best not to look at me or ask a question until I’ve had my first bite of breakfast.  Maybe some of you feel the same way – especially those of you who have been asking for Morning Glory muffins to come back.

We heard you, and they’re here.  Our new take on this hearty muffin is tasty enough goodness to sustain us non-morning people well into the day.

The story behind this muffin is interesting. To make it, we take large flame raisins and marinate them in pineapple juice with pineapple chunks. Then we add the fruit to the spiced batter with carrots and pecans.  We then top each muffin with a generous helping of chopped pecans to give it a satisfying crunch.

What other muffins would you like to see? How else can we make your mornings better?

Reduced-fat carrot cream cheese, low-fat raisin bran, raspberry sunshine, lemon poppy-seed

And please offer at a special price when purchased with a tall latte.  That would definitely make my mornings better.

Tried one of these the other day because one of my usual breakfast muffins is no longer available.  I was not crazy about it.  Not sure exactly what it was and I should give it another shot before I just say I do not like it entirely.

I tried a sample of it the other day; I love it!

I would like to see Starbucks show some love to the vegans, though; I'm vegetarian, but slowly on my path to veganism as well.  Also, more low-fat options, and bring back some petite muffins, too!

I've heard at these were pulled recently because someone discovered a mealworm in their muffin. I hope this means you're sourcing muffins from a different supplier.

Ok, so the best muffin of all, zucchini walnut, is gone and now morning glory is on a recall.  Please, please bring back the zucchini.

My Starbucks (in Chicago) never had the zucchini walnut muffin and I've never seen the morning glory muffin either.  Yesterday, they only had blueberry.

Since they used to, I don't see why they couldn't.

Finally!  I have been surprised that Starbucks does not offer healthier muffin options (I agree with the Raisin Bran comment) and hearing that you 'stopped selling' the Morning Glory muffin was, frankly depressing.
