Time 45m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup brown sugar
1 cup canola oil
3 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup uncooked rolled oats
½ cup flaked coconut
½ cup raisins
2 cups shredded carrots
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained with juice reserved
¼ cup softened cream cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease muffin tins.
  • In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Make a well in the center of the mixture, and add white sugar, brown sugar, canola oil, eggs, and vanilla. Mix just until evenly moist. Fold in the oats, coconut, raisins, carrots, and pineapple.
  • In a bowl, blend the reserved pineapple juice and cream cheese. Fill each muffin cup about 1/2 full with the muffin batter, reserving about 1/3 of the batter. Spoon approximately 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture into the muffin cups. Top with remaining batter, so that each muffin cup is about 2/3 full.
  • Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.

I'm not a huge fan of carrots, but these muffins were surprisingly good! The carrots add a nice sweetness and moisture, and the spices give them a warm and inviting flavor.

These muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I think next time I'll reduce the amount of sugar by half.
