Glorious Morning Muffins
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup whole-wheat flour
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup Silk® Original, Unsweetened or Vanilla
- ½ cup vegetable or canola oil
- ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 Granny Smith apple, peeled and chopped
- ½ cup shredded coconut
- ½ cup raisins
- 1 cup grated carrots
- ½ cup chopped pecans
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line a muffin tin with paper liners. In a medium bowl whisk together flours, sugars, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. In a large bowl whisk together Silk, oil, applesauce and vanilla. Stir in the apple, coconut, raisins and carrots. Add flour mixture and stir just until moistened – there will be a few lumps. Spoon the batter into muffin cups, filling each cup about 3/4 full. Sprinkle with chopped pecans and bake until tops spring back, about 30-35 minutes. Store, tightly covered, at room temperature for 3-5 days, or freeze.
