MORNING GLORY MUFFINS

Makes 12 muffins

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup raisins
    2 cups Whole Wheat Flour, spooned and leveled
    1 cup plus 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
    2 teaspoons baking soda
    1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
    1 teaspoon ground ginger
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 cups peeled and grated carrots
    1 large tart apple, such as Granny Smith, peeled, cored and grated
    1/2 cup shredded coconut, unsweetened
    2/3 cup chopped walnuts
    1/3 cup wheat germ
    3 large eggs
    2/3 cup vegetable oil
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    1/4 cup orange juice

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line the 12-cup muffin tin with paper cups.
    In a small bowl, cover the raisins with hot water. Set them aside to soak while you assemble the rest of the recipe.
    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger and salt.
    Stir in the carrots, apple, coconut, walnuts, and wheat germ.
    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, squeezing out any excess water with your hands, and stir them in.
    Divide the batter among the wells of the prepared pan. They will be very full.
    Bake the muffins for 25 to 28 minutes, until they're nicely domed and a cake tester inserted in the center of one of the inner muffins comes out clean.
    Remove the muffins from the oven and let cool in the pan on a rack for about 5 minutes. Turn the muffins out onto the rack to cool completely. Cover and store at room temperature for several days, or freeze for longer storage.
