Pear, Carrot, & Ginger Muffins
Ingredients:
1 cup Egg Substitute or 4 Whole Large Eggs
1 cup Non-fat Vanilla Greek Yogurt(or plain)
1/3 cup Coconut Oil or Canola Oil
1 cup Brown Sugar
2 tbl. Gourmet Garden Ginger(or jarred)
1 Tbl. Vanilla
1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
2 cups All-Purpose Unbleached Flour
2 tsp. Baking Soda
2 tsp. Baking Powder
2 tsp. Cinnamon
1 tsp. Kosher Salt
3 medium size Pears, finely diced
2 cups Grated Carrot
Preheat oven to 350' and line 2 12 count cupcake pans with paper liners, or spray generously with non-stick spray. Combine wet ingredients(first 6) in a medium bowl with wire whisk, set aside. Combine dry ingredients(next 6) in a large bowl with another wire whisk. Create a well in the center and add wet ingredients with large rubber spatula, just until mixed. Add pears and carrots and combine gently. Divide into 24 muffin liners and bake 18-23 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Serve warm with maple butter.
I love baking quick breads and muffins using the egg substitutes because they bake up higher and fluffier. And the added benefits of being low or fat free and a much healthier choice.
