From the Disney Family Editors: Prepare a batch of these tasty muffins for a weekend brunch or to send out with your family on mornings when there isn't time to fix breakfast. They also make good lunchbox stuffers.

A rich, moist muffin packed with whole wheat, oatmeal, raisins, carrots, pineapple, coconut, and a cream cheese surprise baked right in the center! Great for breakfast and kids love them! I vary the recipe depending what I have on hand and it always works out great. Hope you enjoy!

Prep Time:20m
Cook Time:25m
Ready in:45m
Yield:18 muffins
Ingredients
 1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup canola oil
3 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup uncooked rolled oats
1/2 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup raisins
2 cups shredded carrots
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained with juice reserved
1/4 cup softened cream cheese
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease muffin tins.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Make a well in the center of the mixture, and add white sugar, brown sugar, canola oil, eggs, and vanilla. Mix just until evenly moist. Fold in the oats, coconut, raisins, carrots, and pineapple.
  3. In a bowl, blend the reserved pineapple juice and cream cheese. Fill each muffin cup about 1/2 full with the muffin batter, reserving about 1/3 of the batter. Spoon approximately 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture into the muffin cups. Top with remaining batter, so that each muffin cup is about 2/3 full.
  4. Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
