Pineapple Coconut Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Muffins

from the kitchen of Rona

Stir dry ingredients together and make a well:
4 & 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
2 & 1/4 cups white flour
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup quick oats
1 cup dry milk powder
1 cups brown sugar- packed
6 teaspoons baking powder
3 teaspoons soda
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
Mix:
1 can crushed pineapple with juice
1 cup grated apple (with peel)
1 cup flaked coconut (I use large-flake type)
6 eggs
1 stick melted butter (you can substitute applesauce: 1/2 C.)
2 cups water

Stir 'til just mixed with some dry ingredients not totally mixed in - in other words, don't over-mix. Drop into muffin tins lined with papers & bake @ 400 degrees for 10 - 12 minutes
You can substitute cold-milled flaxseed for the eggs AND the butter if you want to be even more health-conscious. Just follow the directions on the flaxseeds. (Costco)
