How to Make Fruit Veggie Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  3. In a large bowl, mix 2 cups peeled and diced apples with 1/2 cup granulated sugar until well combined.
  4. Add 1/2 cup dried cranberries, 1 cup grated carrots, and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (or your favorite nuts).
  5. Stir gently to combine the fruit and vegetable mixture.
  6. In a separate bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  7. Add the dry ingredients to the apple mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Stir in 2 large eggs and 1/3 cup vegetable oil until evenly distributed.
  9. Mix gently but thoroughly until all ingredients are incorporated.
  10. Divide batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  11. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Let cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
