Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
- 1/4 cup Ground Flax Seed I use golden flax
- 1/2 cup Chopped Nuts
- 1/4 cup Raisins
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Egg
- 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
- 1/4 cup Applesauce
- 1 small Banana mashed
- 1 1/2 cups Shredded Carrots
- 1/2 cup Shredded Apple
- 1/4 cup Buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons Oil I used sunflower
- 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a 12 cup muffin pan with liners or spray with cooking spray.
- Mix the dry ingredients: Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.
- Mix the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together all wet ingredients until mixed.
- Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and fold together just until combined. Do not overmix or the muffins will turn out gummy and chewy.
- Bake: Fill the prepared muffin pan with the batter. Fill the cups almost to the top for a high dome. Reduce the oven heat to 400°F and bake the muffins for 5 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to 360°F (do NOT open the oven door!) and finish baking for about 20 minutes, or until the muffins spring back when lightly pushed.
- Cool: Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove to a cooling rack to cool completely.
