saturday morning muffins

Every Saturday morning I make muffins. Last Saturday I made these muffins that were so good I had to make them again today. After my morning walk these will taste so good with a cup of tea.

Fiber Rich Muffins

1 cup Hodgson Mill Multi Grain Hot Cereal

1 cup white flour, unbleached

1 Tbsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 cup sugar

1 cup carrots, shredded

1 cup apples, peeled and chopped

1/2 cup milk (can be skim)

2 eggs (or 4 egg whites)

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup pecans or walnuts, chopped
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners or grease muffin cups. Blend together dry ingredients. Add remaining ingredients and mix until blended. Batter will be thick; spoon into muffin cups. Bake 20-22 minutes or until golden brown.
