    3 medium Carrots -- peeled
    3 Egg whites -- lightly beaten
    2 tablespoons Canola oil
    1/4 cup Unsweetened applesauce
    1/2 cup Dark brown sugar
    1 teaspoon Vanilla
    3/4 cup Flour
    1 1/2 teaspoons Baking soda
    1 1/2 teaspoons Baking powder
    1 teaspoon Cinnamon

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray nine
    regular-sized muffin cups with vegetable cooking spray
    and set aside.

    2. Cut the apple into quarters and remove the core.
    Coarsely grate the apple and carrots, either by hand
    or with a food processor. Combine with the lightly
    beaten egg whites, oil, applesauce, brown sugar and
    vanilla.

    3. Sift together the flour, soda, baking powder,
    cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt. Stir into the moist
    ingredients. Add the oatmeal, raisins and cereal.
    Spoon in the prepared muffin tins, filling to the top.


    4. Bake 30 minutes, until the muffins test clean. Cool
    a few minutes in the pan before unmolding onto a
    cooling rack.
