In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, egg whites, apple butter, oil, and vanilla together.

In a large bowl, stir together the flours, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the carrots, apples, and raisins. Stir in the apple butter mixture just until moistened. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling them about 3/4 full.

In a small bowl, combine the walnuts and wheat germ; sprinkle the mixture over the muffin tops.
