Ingredients
-
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
-
2/3 cup unbleached white flour
-
1/4 cup wheat germ
-
1 1/2 cups unprocessed oat bran (or wheat bran)
-
1/4 cup cornmeal
-
1 tablespoon baking powder
-
3/4 teaspoon salt
-
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
-
2 eggs, beaten
-
1/4 cup honey
-
1 tablespoon canola oil
-
2 tablespoons molasses
-
2/3 cup applesauce
-
1 1/3 cups low-fat milk
-
1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen, both work just fine)
-
1/2 cup fresh fruit, chopped
-
1/2 cup carrot, finely grated
Instructions
- preheat oven to 375 (F).
- in a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients (first 8 ingredients).
- in another large bowl combine the wet ingredients (next 6 ingredients).
- pour the wet into the dry and mix until just combined.
- gently stir in the carrots and fruit.
- scoop batter into muffin tins, filling each cup to the top.
- baking time seems to vary and i'm not entirely sure why but set the timer for 20 minutes and check on the muffins every 5 minutes after that. it'll probably take about 40 minutes. basically, you want your muffins to pass the old toothpick test. keep in mind though, a little underdone is ok as these freeze and reheat wonderfully.
