Ingredients

  • 2 cups old-fashioned whole rolled oats
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup 8 ounces unsweetened applesauce (I used cinnamon applesauce)
  • ⅔ cup light brown sugar packed
  • 3 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups very loosely packed shredded carrots from about 1 extra-large carrot, peeled
  • ¾ cup raisins or to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350F and spray mini muffin pans with floured cooking spray (or regular cooking spray); set aside.
  2. To the canister of a high speed blender, add the oats and grind into a fine powder, about 30 seconds.
  3. Add the cinnamon, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and mix for a few seconds to incorporate.
  4. Add the eggs, applesauce, brown sugar, oil, vanilla, and mix briefly to combine.
  5. Add the carrots, raisins, and stir in by hand with a spoon.
  6. Fill the prepared muffin tin cavities to just under 3/4 of the way full and bake for about 17 minutes, or until done and a toothpick comes out mostly clean and the muffin is springy and set to the touch.
  7. Allow muffins to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, or until cool enough to remove.

Notes

  • Baking time: Exact baking times will depend on how big your muffin pan cavities are, how many pans you have in your oven at once, climate and oven variances, etc. Watch your food and not the clock in order to determine how long to bake.
  • Storage: Muffins will keep airtight at room temp for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months.
