| INGREDIENTS: | ||
| 3/4 cup whole wheat flour | 1/4 cup soy flour | 1 teaspoon baking soda |
| 1 cup ground carrots (18 to 20 baby carrots) | 1 egg | 1/4 cup cottage cheese |
| 1/4 cup safflower oil | 1/3 cup honey | 1 teaspoon vanilla |
| 1 | Preheat the oven to 325 F. Line the cups of a mini-muffin tin with paper cups or spray them with oil. |
| 2 | Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a food processor, grind the carrots. Add the egg, cottage cheese, oil, honey, and vanilla and blend together in the food processor. Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling them about 3/4 full. Bake for 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. |
| 3 | If desired, frost with cream cheese right before serving. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container. |
