Ingredients
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups self-raising flour

How to make energy muffins
Carrots, apples, coconut, sultanas — doesn’t that sound healthy to you? :P
Even if you’re not in need of that extra energy boost to start your morning, even if you don’t feel like stirring a mash of orange-green pulp in your mixing bowl, I would implore you to try this. Moist, not overly sweet, full of flavour and bite, this recipe is definitely for keeps.
Or at least on those days when you want to feel healthier.
Preheat oven to 180C.
Sift flour, sugar, cinnamon and baking powder into a bowl.
Add carrot, apple, coconut and sultanas.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, oil and vanilla.
Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Bake at 180C for 22-25mins.
