How to Make Heavenly Fiber Muffins

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
Peel and chop 1 medium apple (about 1 cup chopped).
Peel and shred or finely chop 1 medium carrot (about 1/2 cup shredded/chopped).
In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 2 cups Hodgson Mill multi-grain hot cereal (or finely blended oatmeal), 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour, ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, 2 teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: 2 large eggs (or 4 egg whites), 1 cup skim milk (or milk of choice), ½ cup vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Add the chopped apple and carrot to the wet ingredients.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix.
Stir in ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full.
Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm with your favorite spread like butter, margarine, or jam.
