Carrot and Zucchini Muffins

I know these don't look too appetizing, but they're good. They taste kind of like spice bread or muffins. They're good...PLUS I got my kids to eat carrots and zucchini and they didn't even know it.

Makes about 12 muffins

1/4 cup canola oil
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
3/4 cup applesauce
1 cup grated zucchini
1 cup grated carrot
1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp salt

Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, whisk together oil and sugar. Beat in egg, then applesauce. Stir in carrots and zucchini. In another large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients, until just mixed. Spoon batter to the very top of sprayed, paper-lined muffin cups and bake 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in a muffin.
