Ingredients

  • Vegetable-oil cooking spray
  • 3/4 cup whole-wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup (3 ounces) pecans, toasted and finely chopped

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Coat a standard (12-cup) muffin tin with cooking spray. Whisk together flours, pecans, wheat germ, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

Stir together carrots, zucchini, yogurt, egg yolks, molasses, and orange zest in a large bowl. Fold flour mixture into carrot mixture until just combined. With a whisk or a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites until shiny, stiff peaks form. Gently fold egg whites into the carrot mixture.
