Ingredients:

1 apple

1 banana

1 cup carrots (chopped)

1/3 cup raisins

1 egg (optional)

1/4 cup of your favorite nut butter

1/4 cup honey or real maple syrup

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground ginger

1 tsp vanilla or almond extract

2 tbsp flax seed (milled or whole)

1 cup rolled oats

Preparation:

 

Preheat oven to 375 and grease your muffin tin if not using paper muffin cups. Combine ingredients in a food processor or Vitamix until desired texture is reached (I’ve tried just chopping everything up and mixing with my hands, but that does take some time. If you like a lot of texture in your muffins, but like saving time, try a pie crust cutter to blend ingredients). Pour/spoon batter into muffin tins. If your batter seems a bit thin (some apples are more juicy than others) add an additional 1/4 cup of oats. Bake at 375 for 20-25min (until firm) and allow to sit 10 minutes before removing. I personally love to top mine with walnuts or chopped almonds before baking. The added crunch is really nice.
