Full of nutritious goodies, kids and health-nuts love them! Great for breakfast on the go! Easily veganized and full of fiber. I think raisins would also be a nice addition, but they are not part of this recipe. It really helps if you have a food processor to grate the carrots and apples, but it's not necessary. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 cup whole wheat flour |
1/2 cup natural bran |
1/2 cup oats |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon clove |
1/4 teaspoon powdered ginger or 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger |
2 eggs (or 2 ener-g egg replacers) |
1/2 cup maple syrup |
1/2 cup olive oil |
1 (4 ounce) container applesauce |
1 cup carrot, grated |
1/2 cup apple, grated |
1 cup walnuts, chopped |
1/2 cup shredded coconut |
water or milk (to bind ingredients) or soymilk (to bind ingredients) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and grease muffin tin(s).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients .
3. In a small mixing bowl, combine eggs (or egg replacers), maple syrup, oil, and apple sauce.
4. Add wet mixture to dry mixture and mix well. If the mixture is too dry, add enough milk, soymilk, or water to get everything to bind.
5. Mix in carrots, apples, walnuts, and coconut.
6. Spoon mixture into prepared muffin tins and bake for 20-25 minutes.
