High-Fiber Morning Muffins
My new favorite way to start the day, these naturally moist muffins get you off to a healthy start with whole grains and fiber.
Recipe adapted from one provided by the fine folks at Hodgson Mill.

1 cup HODGSON MILL MULTI GRAIN HOT CEREAL
1/2 cup white flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup sugar, or brown sugar
1 cup carrots, shredded
1 cup apples, shredded with peel
1/2 cup milk
2 eggs
1/4 cup canola oil
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped

Preheat Oven to 400ยบ. Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners or grease muffin cups. Blend together dry ingredients. Add remaining ingredients and mix until blended. Batter will be thick; spoon into muffin cups. Bake 20-22 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 12 muffins.
