Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 eggs
  • ¾ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 2 cups shredded carrots
  • 1 cup peeled and shredded apple
  • ½ cup raisins
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts
  • ½ cup flaked coconut

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl.  In a medium bowl stir together the eggs, oil, vanilla extract, brown sugar, carrots and apple.  Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients stirring just until barely incorporated.
  • Fold in the raisins, walnuts, and coconut.  Avoid any over stirring  or overmixing so the dough does not get tough.
  • Line the muffin pan with muffin liners. Spoon the batter into the muffin liners filling them all the way up.  Bake for 10 minutes.  Then reduce the oven to 350 degrees.  Bake an additional 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
