Categories     dessert

Time 45m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2/3 cup dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons wheat germ
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch fine salt
2 large eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
4 medium carrots, grated (about 2 cups)
1/2 cup canned crushed pineapple, drained

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line twelve 1/2-cup muffin cups with paper muffin liners.
  • Whisk the flours with the brown sugar, wheat germ, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. In another medium bowl lightly whisk the egg, then whisk in the vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
  • Quickly and lightly fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a rubber spatula. Stir in the carrots and pineapple just until evenly moist; the batter will be very thick. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Turn muffins out of the tins and cool on a rack. Serve warm.

HEALTHY AND HEARTY CARROT CAKE MUFFINS



Healthy and Hearty Carrot Cake Muffins image

This is a variation on my favorite blueberry muffin recipe. It's a delicious healthy take on carrot cake - lots of fiber from the whole wheat flour and rolled oats, and you can use less sugar because the pineapple, raisins and shredded coconut add sweetness. I've also reduced the oil, since the crushed pineapple makes the muffins nice and moist. For an extra treat, top with cream cheese frosting. I love to make extra on weekends and freeze the extras for later.

1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or 1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup buttermilk
2 eggs, beaten
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

1 1/2 cups shredded carrots

  • Fold in shredded carrots, walnuts or pepitas, shredded coconut, and golden raisins. (Note: if you use bagged shredded carrots, you may want to coarsely chop them so the shreds don't stick out of your muffin).
  • Scoop 1/3 cup of batter per muffin into tin.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Wait patiently for a few minutes before popping your muffins out of the tin!
