Vegan Apple Carrot Muffins

Muffins have always been one of my favorite sweets. However, I try to avoid buying them because they are loaded with sugar, butter and calories! So, I have made these extremely healthy and hearty muffins :)
preheat the oven to 350 degrees and spray muffin tins with cooking spray. Mix together 2 cups whole wheat flour, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tsp. baking soda,1tsp. cinnamon, 1/2 tsp salt. Then add 1 cup chopped carrots, 1 diced apple, 3/4 cup raisins/ 1/2 cup chopped pecans. in a seperate bowl, mix together 1/2 cup earth balance "butter", 2 tbsp ground flaxseed, 2 tsp vanilla and 6 tbsp of water. microwave to soften for about 10 seconds. mix everything together thrououghly. Distribute the mixture into the muffin cups. Bake for about 25 to 20 minutes or until muffins are firm and a toothpick comes out clean. I made mini muffins and large muffins. :))
