Morning Coffee Muffins

Moist, chewy, healthy, and delicious, these muffins are a Mumm team favorite. Team member Jackie adapted the Morning Glory Muffin recipe to create this healthier version of the well-known recipe.

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 1/4 cups white sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups shredded carrots
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1/2 cup dried cranberries
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
• 1/2 cup unsweetened flaked coconut
• 1 apple - peeled, cored and shredded
• 3 eggs
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups, or line with paper muffin liners.
2. In a large bowl, mix together flours, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in the carrot, raisins, dried cranberries, nuts, coconut, and apple.
3. In a separate bowl, beat together eggs, oil, applesauce and vanilla. Stir egg mixture into the carrot/flour mixture, just until moistened. Scoop batter into prepared muffin cups.
4. Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into center of a muffin comes out clean.
