Makes 20 Muffins
Ingredients:
2 Cups Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
1 Cup Oatmeal
2 Tbsp Orange Zest
1 Tsp Baking Powder
1/2 Tsp Baking Soda
2 Tsp New Hudson Apple Pie Spice
1/2 Tsp Salt
2 Eggs
1 Cup Plain Yogurt
3/4 Cup Pureed Carrots
1/4 Cup Olive Oil
1/2 Cup Honey
1/2 Cup Orange Juice
1/2 Cup Nuts (I used Almonds)
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350ยบ.
To make the carrot puree, simply steam them until they are soft (I used one bunch of carrots and the was just about perfect.) About 5 minutes in the microwave or 10 minutes or so on the stove. Place in blender with olive oil and puree.
In a mixing bowl add carrot puree and the remainder of the ingredients and mix until fully incorporated. This smells soo good!
I used a muffin pan that I placed muffing liners into. I also used a 3 tbsp scoop to ensure that all the muffins are the same size.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, and enjoy!
