How to Make Low Fat Morning Glory Muffins
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
- In a large bowl, whisk together: 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup whole wheat flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together: 2 large eggs, ½ cup unsweetened applesauce, ½ cup skim milk, ¼ cup vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a small bowl, combine: 1 cup grated carrots, ½ cup raisins, ¼ cup sunflower seeds, and the zest of 1 orange.
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the carrot, raisin, sunflower seed, and orange zest mixture.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the muffins are golden brown.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
