A friend passed this on to me and told me to share it with as many people as possible, because she believes that a truly good recipe should not be kept a secret! Feel free to share this with others, and tell them to pass it on, too. (Another tip: This is a good way to get your kids to eat their fruits and vegetables!!)
Ingredients:
3 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup rolled oats (old fashioned, not quick cooking)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup finely chopped apple
1 cup grated carrot
2 eggs (or 1 egg plus 2 egg whites)
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups buttermilk
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
2. Stir first six ingredients well in a large bowl.
3. Mix in all of the remaining ingredients. Combine well but do not over-mix; stir just until ingredients are well-combined.
4. Line and grease muffin tin. Fill them about 2/3 full per muffin liner.
5. Bake for 24 to 26 minutes at 300 degrees F.
6. Enjoy, and be sure to tell me whether or not you like them!
