These moist and delicious muffin taste amazing and you'd never know they were healthy. When I was growing up Bran muffins were the health food of choice for many years. Then we realized they were actually not that healthy. But they did taste good. Well, my husband and kids love muffins. So I started experimenting with ways to make them healthier and still taste amazing. These are a modification of the Bran Flax Muffins made with wheat flour. I used less sugar and replaced regular sugar with coconut sugar. I have made these using regular milk and with a milk alternative and they both taste great. I like using golden flax meal because it has a milder taste. You can't tell these muffins have lots of flax meal. These muffins are full of carrots and apples, omega's, and lots of healthy fiber. They are great for a quick breakfast on the go, a snack, or in my kids lunches. I love when healthy and yummy combine to make a great muffin.
