---

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 3/4 cups oat bran
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup nonfat dry milk
1/4 cup flaxseed
4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups shredded carrot
3 cups shredded Granny Smith apple
1 cup raisins
1 cup fat-free milk
1/4 cup canola oil
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 large egg whites
1 thin-skinned orange, unpeeled and quartered
Cooking spray

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375°.

Grind Flaxseed - we used a coffee grinder.

Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours and the next 8 ingredients (all-purpose flour through salt) in a large bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Stir in carrot, apple, and raisins.

Combine milk, oil, applesauce, vanilla, egg whites, and orange in a blender or food processor; process until smooth. Make a well in center of flour mixture; add milk mixture; stir just until moist.

Spoon 1/4 cup batter into each of 36 muffin cups coated with cooking spray. Bake in batches at 375° for 20 minutes or until muffins are browned and spring back when touched lightly in center. Remove the muffins from pans immediately, and place on a wire rack.

Yield - 36 muffins (serving size: 1 muffin)
