Servings: persons

2 cups White Whole Wheat Flour
1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
2 teaspoons Apple Pie Spice Mix
1/4 teaspoons Salt
1/2 cups Unsweetened Applesauce (Mine Is Quite Thick And Creamy)
1/2 cups Greek Yogurt
1/3 cups Maple Syrup
1/4 cups Oil Or Melted Butter
2 Large Eggs
1/2 Orange, Zested (optional)
1/2 Tablespoons Vanilla Extract
2-1/2 cups Shredded Carrots About 4 Large
1/2 cups Chopped Walnuts (optional)

1
Preheat oven to 425u00b0F (220u00b0C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease.
2
Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, apple pie spice mix and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
3
Whisk together all renaming ingredients except carrots and walnuts, until smooth. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Add carrots and walnuts and fold together just until combined. Do not over-mix!
4
Using an ice cream or cookie scoop, evenly divide the muffin batter between the prepared muffin cups.
5
Reduce oven temperature to 400u00b0F (200u00b0C). Bake muffins for 5 minutes. Without opening your oven, reduce oven temperature to 360u00b0F (180u00b0C) and finish baking muffins for another 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out just clean. Do not over-bake or the muffins will be dry.
6
Cool muffins in the pan for 5 minutes before removing them from the pan to cool completely on a cooling rack.
