Carrot muffins - yummy!

2 c. whole wheat flour
1/2 c. sugar
1 c. Splenda
2 tsp. baking soda
1 heaping tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
2 1/2 c. shredded carrots
1/2 c. shredded coconut
1/4 c. raisins
1/2 c. chopped pecans
3 eggs (I used 2 and 1/4 c. egg substitute)
1/2 c. oil
1 c. + 2 Tbl. applesauce
2 tsp. vanilla

Preheat oven to 350F. Put the flour, sugar, Splenda, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk to thoroughly mix. Add the carrots, coconuts, raisins, and pecans and stir until all are evenly distributed in the dry mix. In another bowl, lightly beat the eggs then add the oil, applesauce and vanilla mixing until all the wet ingredients are combined. Add the wet to the dry and stir until just incorporated--don't overwork. Line muffin tins (18) with paper inserts. Spoon batter evenly across all 18 muffins. Bake for 25 minutes--turning the tins halfway through the process for even baking.
