Source:
1/2 cup | raisins |
2 cups | King Arthur whole wheat flour, traditional or white whole wheat |
1 cup | brown sugar |
2 teaspoons | baking soda |
2 teaspoons | cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon | ground ginger |
1/2 teaspoon | salt |
2 cups | carrots, peeled and grated |
1 large | tart apple, peeled, cored, and grated |
1/2 cup (1 1/2 ounces) | sweetened shredded coconut |
1/2 cup (2 ounces) | chopped walnuts |
1/3 cup (1 1/2 ounces) | sunflower seeds or wheat germ, optional |
3 large | eggs |
2/3 cup | vegetable oil |
2 teaspoons | vanilla extract |
1/4 cup | orange juice |
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin, or line it with papers and spray the insides of the papers.
To make the muffins: In a small bowl, cover the raisins with hot water, and set them aside to soak while you assemble the rest of the recipe. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, spices, and salt. Stir in the carrots, apple, coconut, nuts, & sunflower seeds or wheat germ, if using. In a separate bowl, beat together the eggs, oil, vanilla, and orange juice. Add to the flour mixture, and stir until evenly moistened. Drain the raisins and stir them in. Divide the batter among the wells of the prepared pan (they'll be full almost to the top)
To bake the muffins: Bake for 25 to 28 mins., until nicely domed & a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven, let cool for 5 mins. in their pan on a rack, then turn out of pans to finish cooling.
