We LOVE Muffins!

Big N absolutely loves muffins. I love them for their ability to hide vegetables and for the easy breakfasts that can be done in an instant. This week we made carrot raisin muffins as Big N loves having bits of things to pick out of her muffins.



We've altered quite a few recipes to come up with this one we like:

Ingredients:

3 medium eggs

½ cup of all-purpose flour

1 cup of whole wheat flour

1 ½ cups of shredded carrots.

¾ cup of granulated sugar.

½ cup of raisins.

½ cup of milk

½ cup of melted butter

2 teaspoons of cinnamon

1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder

½ teaspoon of baking soda

½ teaspoon of vanilla.

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).Combine the flour, cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda. Beat together the eggs and the granulated sugar. Add the shredded carrots, raisins, milk, and melted butter; mix thoroughly. Add the flour mixture and stir until the dry ingredients have moistened. Spoon the batter into twelve greased muffin cups. Bake for 20 minutes.
