Bran Flax Muffins - My Healthier Version - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour (I like King Arthur)
    3/4 cup flax seed meal (Bob's Red Mill)
    3/4 cup oat bran
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    2 teaspoons baking soda
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 teaspoons cinnamon
    1 1/2 cups carrots, shredded
    2 apples, peeled and shredded
    1/2 cup raisins
    1 cup walnuts, chopped
    3/4 cup nonfat milk
    1 egg
    1 egg white
    1 teaspoon vanilla
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350.
    Lightly grease muffin tins or line with paper baking cups; set aside.
    Mix together flour, flaxseed, oat bran, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl.
    Stir in carrots, apples, raisins, and nuts.
    Combine milk, eggs, and vanilla.
    Pour liquid ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until ingredients are moistened. Do not overmix.
    Fill muffin cups about 3/4 of the way. (I like to use a 1/3 cup measuring scoop to ensure that all muffins are the same size.).
    Bake 15 - 20 minutes.
