This recipe came from a cookbook titled, "Alaska Roadhouse Recipes" ISBN: 9-781892-15425 51695. From a little place in the Yukon, by Gail M. LaRocque and the Cinnamon Cache Bakery & Coffee Shop in Carcross, Canada. I love these healthy muffins. Anything could be really substituted in there but I loved seeing the little flecks of orange shredded carrot! Consider getting this cookbook if you are a cookbook lover. The photos and recipes are worth every dime.

How To Make midnight sun muffins

  • Mix dry ingredients with frut and nuts.
    Step 1
    Combine dry ingredients and mix well. Add in fruit and nuts. I kind of massage in the fruit and nuts. The apricots are sticky and want to hold together. Separate them by gentle massaging them with the flour mix.
  • Mix wet ingredients and shredded carrot/apple into the dry.
    Step 2
    Beat together eggs, oil/applesauce, banana and vanilla. Add in the shredded carrots/apples. Stir into flour mixture until moistened.
  • Look at those beautiful carrots!!!!
    Step 3
    Spoon into muffin tins. Bake at 375 F for 15 to 20 minutes.
