Directions
Pre-heat the oven to 375° with rack in center of oven. Line pan with cupcake papers and spray well.
In a large bowl whisk together the NUT FLOUR BLEND, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, baking soda and salt. Stir in grated fruit and veggies, coconut and nuts. Mix well until all is coated.
In a separate bowl mix together eggs, oil, and liquid. Add to the flour mixture and stir until all ingredients are well combined.
In cupcake pan, scoop mixture into sprayed papers and bake about 18 to 25 minutes for standard cupcakes or 15 to 20 minutes for mini muffins. They will look a little dry and grainy when done.
