Perfect Breakfast Muffins
(12 servings)
- 4 large eggs
-
1/2 cup brown sugar
-
1/2 cup vegetable oil
-
2 tsp vanilla extract
-
1 medium carrot (peeled and grated)
-
1 large apple (peeled and grated)
-
1/2 cup raisins (golden is best)
-
1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut
-
1/2 cup oats
-
1 cup flour
-
1/4 cup wheat-germ (if you don't have it just use equal amount of flour)
-
1 tsp baking soda
-
1/2 tsp baking powder
-
1 tsp ginger
-
1/8 tsp nutmeg
-
1/4 tsp cinnamon
-
1/4 tsp salt
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Whisk the first four ingredients together with an electric mixer.
Mix the oats, flour, wheat-germ, baking soda, baking powder, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt. Fold into the wet mixture.
Add and mix in with a spatula the fruit and nuts.
Fill in the muffin tray cups to the top (not over). They will rise nicely. Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted.
Delicious and hearty with grated carrot, raisins and shredded coconut. Whole grain oats and wheat germ add a healthy dose of fiber.
Mr Breakfast would like to thank HollyMartel for this recipe.
