Apple Carrot Muffins - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 3/4 cups bran cereal
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup white sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup canola oil
3/4 cup peeled and finely chopped apple
3/4 cup grated carrot
1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners.
Mix bran cereal, flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Beat egg, buttermilk, and canola oil in a separate bowl. Pour liquid ingredients into bran mixture; gently stir in apple, carrot, and walnuts. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, filling them about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in pans for 5 minutes before removing muffins to finish cooling on a wire rack.
