Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups all-purpose flour (can sub 1 cup for whole wheat flour or all for white whole wheat flour)
1 cup rolled oats + a couple extra tablespoons for topping
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 cup milk (can substitute unsweetened almond milk)
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce*
1/3 cup canola oil
1 large egg
2-3 medium carrots (finely grated (about 2 cups))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease or place cupcake wrappers in a standard-size, 12-cup muffin pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and ginger.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, applesauce, brown sugar, canola oil, egg, and carrots.
  • Pour the wet ingredients over the dry and whisk just until all ingredients are incorporated.
  • Divide the mixture between the muffin cups. I like to use an ice cream scoop for this - so easy! Cups should be filled just about to the top.
  • Bake until muffin tops spring back when poked and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20-22 minutes
  • Allow to cool for about 10 minutes before removing from the muffin tin.
  • Serve plain or with butter (or vegan butter) if desired.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 - 3 days or freeze.
