Equipment

  • muffin tin
  • mixing bowls
  • whisk
  • Spatula
  • toothpick

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 whole eggs
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ⅓ cup oil
  • ⅓ cup orange juice fresh, if possible
  • zest of 1 orange
  • 2 cups grated carrots
  • 1 cup grated apple
  • ½ cup dried cranberries or raisins
  • ¼ cup pumpkin seeds + more to sprinkle on top
  • ¼ cup sunflower seeds + more to sprinkle on top

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 425°F and prepare muffin tins with liners and cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Whisk together and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the rest of the ingredients and mix thoroughly. Make sure the brown sugar is fully dissolved.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, fold everything together. Make sure to mix thoroughly to avoid any clumps of flour.
  • Line your tin with muffin liners to avoid sticking. Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin. This will make between 12-14 muffins depending on the size.
  • Bake 6 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 350°F and bake for an additional 17-19 minutes. Remove from oven when a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Once baked, remove from oven and let sit in muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

These muffins are great for breakfast or as a snack and can be customized with your favorite nuts or fruits.
