Oatmeal, Carrot, Apple Muffins

I like to make these for breakfast, and then we snack on them throughout the day. They're not too sweet, and they have carrots, so that makes them healthy in my book. :) Feel free to add whatever fruit or nuts you have, I am sure just about anything would work.

Oatmeal, Carrot, Apple Muffins
Serving Size = 12 muffins
Adapted from

• 2 cups oats, ground
• 1/4 cup of flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ginger
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup oil, I use grapeseed
• 1/2 cup of sugar, brown would be best
• 1/4 cup raisins
• 2 large carrots, grated (1 cup)
• 1 apple, peeled and grated

1. Preheat oven to 400F, grease a muffin pan very well. These tend to stick, so lining with muffin cups would be ideal.
2. In a food processor or Vitamix, grind the oats for a minute, until you have something like cornmeal.
3. Mix together all dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Stir in the carrot, apple, and raisins. Do not over mix.
4. Fill up muffin pan and bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool.
