Ingredients

1 3/4 cups whole wheat graham flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin spice
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup vanilla soymilk
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup shredded carrot
1/2 cup raisins

Steps:

Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl, add the liquid ingredients and stir just long enough to combine. Add the carrots and raisins and stir to combine.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray muffin pans with non-stick spray. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until toothpick comes out clean.

Tips:

Use fresh carrots: Fresh carrots provide the best flavor and texture to the muffins.
Grate the carrots finely: Finely grated carrots will distribute evenly throughout the batter and won't weigh the muffins down.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Use a muffin scoop to fill the muffin cups: This will help ensure that all of the muffins are the same size and shape.
Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
Let the muffins cool completely before frosting: This will help the frosting set properly.
