Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1/2 cup raisins or dried currants

1 1/2 cups Whole-wheat flour

1 cup All-bran cereal or 100% Bran

1/3 cup sesame seeds

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon ground allspice

1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 1/2 cups finely shredded or grated raw carrots

2/3 cup nonfat yogurt

1/2 cup mashed banana

1/4 cup fresh orange juice

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 tablespoon grated lemon zest

 

1. Heat oven to 350F. Use nonstick muffin pans and spray with nonstick

cooking spray, or use paper muffin cup liners.

 

2. Place the raisins in a bowl and add boiling water to cover. Let stand

until plump, about 15 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

 

3. Combine the flour, bran, sesame seeds, cinnamon, allspice, cloves,

baking powder, and baking soda in a large bowl and stir to blend. Make a

well in the center. Blend the raisins, carrots, yogurt, banana, orange

juice, honey, vegetable oil, and lemon zest in a separate bowl. Pour into

the well in the dry ingredients. Fold gently, but thoroughly, until all the

ingredients are evenly moistened. Do not overmix. Spoon batter into muffin

cups, filling them almost to the top.

 

4. Bake until the batter begins to pull away from the sides of the cups,

about 25 minutes. Cool slightly in pans. Transfer to a wire rack. Serve

warm or at room temperature.
