ingredients
- 78.78 ml whole wheat flour
- 157.80 ml unbleached white flour
- 59.14 ml wheat germ
- 354.88 ml unprocessed oat bran (or wheat bran)
- 59.14 ml cornmeal
- 14.79 ml baking powder
- 3.69 ml salt
- 1.23 ml cinnamon
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 59.14 ml honey
- 14.79 ml canola oil
- 29.58 ml molasses
- 157.80 ml applesauce
- 315.37 ml low-fat milk
- 118.29 ml carrot, finely grated
- 236.59 ml blueberries (fresh or frozen, both work just fine)
- 118.29 ml fresh fruit, chopped
directions
- preheat oven to 375 (F).
- in a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients (first 8 ingredients).
- in another large bowl combine the wet ingredients (next 6 ingredients).
- pour the wet into the dry and mix until just combined.
- gently stir in the carrots and fruit.
- scoop batter into muffin tins, filling each cup to the top.
- baking time seems to vary and i'm not entirely sure why but set the timer for 20 minutes and check on the muffins every 5 minutes after that. it'll probably take about 40 minutes. basically, you want your muffins to pass the old toothpick test. keep in mind though, a little underdone is ok as these freeze and reheat wonderfully.

These are most definately high fiber, so beware before consuming them. I can imagine eating these on a regular basis, certain I would lose at least 5 pounds a week...thinking of sending this recipe to Biggest Loser TV show...lol. We ate these with a tad bit of real butter just to add a touch of self indulgence. Great and easy recipe, and will be using it again.

This recipe is very good, if not a bit time consuming. I replaced the wheat germ with flax seed mill as that was what I had on hand. I also baked half of them in muffin top pans. As I am still getting used to the pans, I ended up with more than 12 muffins. My DL loved these muffins, so I think I will be doing them again! Thanks for the recipe...much appreciated!
