Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F.
Line muffin tin with paper or silicone liners or coat well with cooking spray.
Make flaxseed egg by whisking flaxseed with 3 Tablespoons in a small bowl. Set aside.
Combine flour, oat bran, cinnamon, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
Mash bananas in a bowl and add flaxseed egg, coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla, carrots and raisins.
Pour wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to over mix.
Fill each muffin cup 3/4 of the way full, sprinkle chopped walnuts on top of each muffin (if using) and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the middle of a muffin.
Remove from oven and let cool completely before enjoying.

Notes

I've found that whole wheat pastry flour or whole wheat white flour keeps the texture lighter for these muffins. You can use regular whole wheat flour, but they will be a bit more dense.
