maple parsnip morning glory coffee cake 
We are off to a great start in maple sugaring season here in Vermont, so I am temporarily straying from my usual vegetable side dish and weeknight meal line-up for a brief moment to bring you this moist and fragrant Maple Parsnip Morning Glory Coffee Cake. I couldn’t stop obsessing about the idea of using parsnips instead of carrots in a morning glory recipe. I wondered if it would taste good, so I just had to make it happen.
I ended up making morning glory coffee cake instead of muffins; a celebration worthy recipe, if you will. And I’ll just cut to the chase… it came out amazingly well. The maple syrup and naturally sweet parsnips and raisins make this ultra moist and fragrant. You can serve it for Easter brunch or during maple sugaring season or just for any reason really! It’s a delicious way to enjoy parsnips in baking!
