Serves: 12
 

Ingredients:

1 spray nonstick vegetable spray
1 cup flour
2 tablespoons wheat germ -- toasted
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons brown sugar substitute
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cloves
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 1/3 cups carrots -- shredded
1/2 cup raisins -- soaked in hot water
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
 

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray muffin tins. (My suggestion: spray paper muffin cups - low fat muffins tend to stick.) Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Stir in carrots and drained raisins. Beat eggs with oil. Stir into flour mixture. Divide batter evenly among 12 tins. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of muffin comes out clean.
