Ingredients
-
* 2 cups whole wheat flour
* 1/4 cup wheat bran
* 1/3 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
* 2 teaspoons baking powder
* 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
* 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
* 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1 cup milk (2%)
* 2/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
* 2 eggs
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 3/4 cup finely shredded zucchini
* 3/4 cup finely shredded carrots
* 1tsp granulated sugar
Directions
Grease 12 standard muffin cups. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together milk, applesauce, eggs, and vanilla.
Stir milk mixture into the flour mixture just until flour is moistened. Batter will be lumpy. Set aside 1 tablespoon each shredded zucchini and carrots. Fold remaining zucchini and carrots into the batter. Divide batter among the muffin pan cups. Sprinkle with reserved zucchini and carrot and a little granulated sugar.
Bake at 375° for 25 to 30 minutes, or until centres spring back when lightly touched with finger. Cool in pan on rack for 5 minutes. Serve warm.
Makes about 1 dozen muffins.

These are good, but they're missing something. I noticed that some people added extra spices or other ingredients. I think doubling the spices and adding raisins or nuts would put these over the top. They are definitely nice and moist. They're a bit on the heavy side, but many good muffins are. - 9/2/12
