CARROT APRICOT MUFFINS
I love a good healthy muffin to grab and go in the mornings and I like to use items I have around the house, so when there are extra carrots around, these are simple and delicious!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Grease or line a 12 cup muffin pan (sometimes I have a little more than this so I use a glass custard cup for the extra).
- Mix both flours, sugar blend, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
- Add the chopped apricots and toss lightly to coat.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs.
- Beat in the softened butter, buttermilk, and orange juice.
- Slowly add the flour mixture until just combined.
- Stir in the carrots and nuts.
- Fill each muffin cup about 3/4 full.
- Bake 20-25 minutes until toothpick comes out clean.

These are moist and chewy. I sometimes add 1/2 cup of dates as well as the apricots. A family favorite!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 12 cup muffin pan, or line with paper muffin cups. Place apricots into a small bowl, and pour the boiling water over them. Let stand for 5 minutes.
- In a medium bowl stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, oil, buttermilk and egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and stir until just blended. It is okay for the batter to have some lumps. Drain water from apricots, and mix them into the batter. Spoon into the prepared muffin cups.
- Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top springs back when lightly pressed. Cool in the pan over a wire rack.
