These muffins are filled with all kinds of goodies. Moist and delicious and healthy at the same time. They freeze well too. They disappear way too fast around my house.
In a large bowl add the flour (I sometimes add part pastry wheat or other flour) and flax meal (I have golden flax seeds and grind them into meal in my vita-mix). Add the quick-oats, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
In a separate bowl combine the raisins, apples, chopped nuts and carrots. If you have a food processor it works great to finely chop the apples, nuts and carrots. Mix into the dry ingredients.
In another bowl mix together the milk, eggs and vanilla. Pour into the bowl with all of the other ingredients and stir together just until mixed. Do not overmix! Fill greased muffin pans three-fourths full. I like to sprinkle a nice amount of raw turbinado sugar on top.
Bake 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Makes 15 muffins.
For the Honey Butter, just mix everthing together and spread generously over warm muffins. Enjoy!

I made these yesterday and my whole family loved them! I didn’t make the honey cinnamon butter but thought they were delicious anyway! Great for a healthy grab and go breakfast!

These were amazing! Didn’t dry out, great “grab on the go” breakfast food!

I made these to take to a new neighbor and of course I had to taste them. I liked the combination of flavors, and the cinnamon butter really makes these muffins tasty. Don’t skip it!

I made these with wheat flour and sucuant sugar to conform to my diet. They are quite good especially considering how much healthy stuff is crammed in there! Plus they are nice and moist. I will be making these again.
I halved the recipe which still made 12 muffins and according to my calculations is about 160 calories/muffin.
