Bran Flax Muffins

Thanks for the support J.B.! Also, thank you for my first recipe I am posting based on recommendation, rather than actually trying it. The health factor of these muffins, plus the note about them being moist and delicious, makes these blog worthy. I have not made these, but sure hope to! Enjoy!

Bran Flax Muffins

• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 cup white or spelt flour
• 3/4 cup flaxseed meal
• 3/4 cup oat bran (the cereal works fine)
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 1/2 cups fined shredded carrot (about 2 big or 3 medium)
• 2 peeled & shredded apples
• 1/2 cup raisins (optional)
• 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
• 3/4 cup milk
• 2 beaten eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla

1. Mix together flour, flaxseed meal, oat bran, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl. Stir in carrots, apples, raisins (if desired) and nuts (if using).

2. Combine milk, beaten eggs and vanilla. Pour liquid ingredients into dry ingredients. Stir until ingredients are moistened being careful to not over mix.

3. Fill muffin cups 3/4 full and bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes (I find they usually need 20+ but watch carefully). Makes about 18 muffins. ENJOY!
