Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and arrange two racks evenly spaced in the oven. Line two muffin pans with paper muffin cups.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and vanilla. Add the carrots, apple, pineapple, pecans, coconut, and raisins and stir together. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until combined. Scoop the batter with a standard (2 1/4-inch) ice cream scoop (I use rounded scoops of batter) into the prepared muffin cups. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Place the pans on a baking rack to cool and serve the muffins warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly coat the top of a standard 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray and line with standard cupcake liners.
- Whisk the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger and baking soda in a large bowl to combine. Add the carrot, apple, coconut, pecans, raisins and orange zest and toss to coat.
- Whisk the dark brown sugar, eggs, yogurt and oil in a medium bowl until combined and creamy, about 30 seconds. Gently fold the egg mixture into the dry ingredients just to combine (be careful not to overmix, it's ok if bits of flour are showing).
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. Top each muffin with 1/2 teaspoon of the raw sugar.
- Bake the muffins, rotating the pan halfway through, until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 28 to 33 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let the muffins cool in the pan 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and place onto the rack to cool completely.
MOIST MORNING GLORY MUFFINS
Not only did Rhonda Urich want "Light & Tasty" to cut the fat from her Morning Glory Muffins, but she hoped the staff could make them more nutritious. "I'd like to see flaxseed or whole wheat flour added, making them a healthy snack," explains the Loveland, Colorado reader. We did just that. See how in the pages of the Dec/Jan 2006 issue of "Light & Tasty."
