Ingredients
- 150g plain wholemeal flour
- 50g granulated sugar
- 25g dried skimmed milk powder
- 1 1/2 tsp Baking powder
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground Ginger
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 125ml vegetable oil
- 60ml Honey
- 60ml maple syrup
- 2 Eggs, lightly beaten
- 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
- 1 large Apple
- 75g Carrots, peeled and grated
- 75g raisins
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 180C/gas mark 4.2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, skimmed milk, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon and salt.
3. In a separate bowl add the oil, honey, maple syrup, eggs and vanilla essence. Beat lightly with a whisk until blended. Add the grated apple, carrots and raisins and stir well.
4. Fold in the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not over-mix or the muffins will become heavy.
5. Line a muffin tray with paper cups/cupcake liners and fill until two-thirds full.
6. Bake for 20-25 minutes. A skewer poked through the centre of the muffin should come out clean.
