                        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                    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.
