By: Sharon Voth 
"My kids think these muffins are great because the eggs 'magically' cook in the shell as they rest on top of the muffin. For extra fun, we dye the eggs before baking."

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten

  • 1 cup raisins
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 18 whole uncooked eggs, rinsed

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine flour, oats, sugar, baking powder and salt; set aside. Combine eggs, milk raisins and oil; mix well. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
