Heat oven to 375º. Coat muffin tin ( 12 cup standard size) with nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together bran, both types of flour, the baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Make a well in the center of the mixture. In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, sugar and oil. Stir in the grated carrots and raisins. Pour into the well of dry ingredients and fold together until all ingredients are moistened.

Variations: Use golden raisins instead of dark and stir in 1/4 c. chopped walnuts. Or soak dried cranberries in boiling water for 5 minutes and use in place of raisins. Stir a little ginger into batter before baking. 204 calories per muffin - not bad for a muffin, and it's nutritious.
