Cook Time: 26 minutes
Total Time: 41 minutes
Makes: 12 muffins
Calories: 230kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • cup canola oil
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 cups shredded carrots
  • 1 medium apple, peeled and shredded
  • ½ cup raisins
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare a muffin tin with papers or cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and baking soda
  • In a separate bowl mix together eggs, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla, followed by the carrots, apple, raisins, and nuts (if you’re using them). Add the flour to the mixture and stir until just blended, taking care not to over-mix.
  •  Using an ice cream scoop (or spoon), fill the muffin cups with the batter. Bake for 23-26 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Let muffins cool in tin for a couple minutes before moving to metal racks to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a fat-free option you can replace the canola oil with ⅓ cup of applesauce and use 6 egg whites instead of the 3 whole eggs.
