Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg
• 1/8 tsp ground ginger
• 1/8 tsp allspice
• 1/3 cup honey, or brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup buttermilk, or yogurt
• 1/3 cup oil, or melted butter or applesauce
• 1/2 tsp vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups grated carrots
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1/2 cup chopped nuts

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.

2. Mix together dry ingredients- flour, soda, powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice.

3. Mix together wet ingredients- honey/brown sugar, egg, buttermilk/yogurt, oil, vanilla and the carrots, raisins and nuts. Stir the wet and dry ingredients together until just moistened. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Notes: these were very good - but tasted of whole wheat flour. Next time might change that ratio a bit. Left out the nuts, used oil and eggbeaters.
