Apple Carrot Bran Muffins
Saturday, January 19th, 2008
I don’t like raw carrots. I just can’t eat them. Ameir and my mom say I should because they’re good for my eyes and stuff….but….they just taste like crunch when you eat them raw; there’s no real flavor. Sooooo I use them for other things – roasting, soups, and now – muffins!
This is a great recipe for relatively healthy, very moist and tasty muffins. I got the recipe here, a Ms. Elaine Cooley’s recipe on Allrecipes.com – it was actually pretty great the way it was; I didn’t have to make many changes other than upping the sugar and cinnamon. The “bran” part comes from Raisin Bran cereal. I was surprised when I read the recipe, but trust me, the flakes just melt into the batter and you can’t even tell they’re there! If you’re using plain bran flakes, make sure to add raisins separately – I even thought about adding more here but I didn’t have any. Definitely a great way to use up the bran cereal that you buy to be healthy but never actually eat.
