How to Make Carrot Raisins Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift the bars out easily.
  2. In a large bowl, combine: 1 cup bran cereal, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups grated carrots, ¾ cup packed brown sugar, 1 cup raisins, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together: ½ cup plain yogurt, ¼ cup honey, ¼ cup vegetable oil, and 1 large egg.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter will be thick.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into 18 bars. For easier removal, lift the bars using the parchment paper overhang.
  8. **To make muffins:** Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups about ¾ full using an ice cream scoop. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
