  • 6 Beaten eggs
  • 2 Cups Oil I use coconut melted
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • 2 Cups Sugar
  • 1/4 Cup Sugar For sprinkling on top

Dry Ingredients

  • 4 Cups Whole Wheat Flour I use Prairie Gold White Whole Wheat
  • 4 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 4 tsp Cinnamon

Extras

  • 1 Cup Pecans
  • 1 Cup Unsweetened Coconut
  • 1 Cup Raisins

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350.  Mix all the wet ingredients, apples, carrots, eggs, oil, vanilla and sugar.  Add in the dry ingredients, flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon, mix well.  Lastly, mix in the extras, pecans, coconut and raisins.  Fill the greased or lined muffin pans nearly full. Sprinkle the tops with sugar, if desired.  Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.  Enjoy!

Notes

These muffins do not have a tremendous rise. Therefore you can fill the cups pretty full. Also, if you use coconut oil, or another oil that hardens, you may find the batter to be rather thick by the time you put them in the pans. It is fine.
