Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/4 cups white whole wheat flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup grated carrots (from 1 large carrot)

Instructions

  • Grate the large carrot finely and set aside.
