A great Canadian Living recipe that I adapted a bit to lighten it. Moist mini muffins with lots of dried cranberries. Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups flour |
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg |
2 eggs |
1 1/2 cups shredded carrots |
1 cup low-fat milk |
3/4 cup low-fat vanilla yogurt |
1/3 cup vegetable oil |
3/4 cup dried cranberries |
Directions:
1. In large bowl, whisk together both flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg. 2. In separate bowl, beat eggs; stir in carrots, milk, yogurt and oil. Pour over dry ingredients; sprinkle with cranberries and stir just until moistened. 3. Spoon into greased or paper-lined mini-muffin cups, filling to top. 4. Bake in centre of 350F oven until tops are firm to the touch, about 12 minutes. 5. Let cool in pan on rack for 5 minutes; transfer to rack and let cool. |
