CARROT MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F/180C. Line a muffin pan with paper liners.
• In a large bowl sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Set aside.
• In a mixer bowl fitted with paddle attachment, or using a hand-held mixer, beat together eggs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. On low speed and with the mixer running, add oil slowly and beat until combined. Beat in vanilla extract until combined, then turn off mixer. Fold in carrots by hand until combined. Fold in flour mixture just until combined. Don't overmix. Fold in nuts and shredded coconut.
• Fill each liner ¾ full with batter. Bake for 15-20 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffin comes out clean. Allow muffins to cool completely on a wire rack.
• Muffins will keep in an airtight container for 4 days at room temperature or in the fridge.

SPICED CARROT MUFFINS

Steps:

• Line 12 cups (each 2 1/2 inches wide) of a standard muffin tin with paper liners; set aside. In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, pumpkin-pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together yogurt, butter, and egg. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add yogurt mixture. Stir until just combined. Fold in carrots.
• Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups. (If desired, muffins can be baked immediately in a 375-degree oven for about 20 minutes.) Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes, then cover tin with plastic wrap, and freeze until ready to bake, up to 3 months.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake muffins (still frozen) until a toothpick inserted in center of one comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

SPICED CARROT OATMEAL MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease or place cupcake wrappers in a standard-size, 12-cup muffin pan.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and ginger.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, applesauce, brown sugar, canola oil, egg, and carrots.
• Pour the wet ingredients over the dry and whisk just until all ingredients are incorporated.
• Divide the mixture between the muffin cups. I like to use an ice cream scoop for this - so easy! Cups should be filled just about to the top.
• Bake until muffin tops spring back when poked and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20-22 minutes
• Allow to cool for about 10 minutes before removing from the muffin tin.
• Serve plain or with butter (or vegan butter) if desired.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 - 3 days or freeze.

SPICED CARROT & APPLE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line a muffin tin with nine cases (alternatively, use squares of baking parchment). Mix the oil, yogurt, honey, eggs and vanilla in a jug. In a bowl, combine the flour, bicarb, mixed spice and ¼ tsp salt. Pour the yogurt mixture into the flour mixture and add the apple and carrot, as well as any extra ingredients you're using. Mix with a spatula until well combined, then spoon the mixture into the muffin cases.
• Bake for 20-22 mins, or until a skewer inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean. Leave to cool for at least 5 mins. Can be stored in a tin for three days or frozen for two months; defrost overnight before serving.

CARROT SPICE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a muffin pan with non-stick spray or use muffin liners.
• Mix together all dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a small bowl, combine the liquid ingredients. Add the liquid to the dry and mix just long enough to combine. Add the carrots and raisins and stir to combine.
• Spoon the batter into the muffin cups--it will be very thick. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

CHA-CHING! CARROT SPICE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Mix together dry ingredients- flour, soda, powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice.
• Mix together wet ingredients- honey/brown sugar, egg, buttermilk/yogurt, oil, vanilla and the carrots, raisins and nuts.

CARROT SPICE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F Grease 12 regular muffin cups, 36 miniature muffins cups, or 6 giant muffin cups, or line them with paper baking cups.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, carrot, apple, raisins, and pecans until all ingredients are well mixed.
• I don't mix with a spoon. I use my hands, by lifting and sifting through my fingers until combined. I find mixing with a spoon makes the dough too heavy to mix with the liquid ingredients.
• In another bowl, combine the eggs, oil, and vanilla. Stir into the flour mixture only until blended. Fill the prepared muffin cups three quarters full with the batter. For regular muffins I kept filling them to the top until I used up all the batter and they came out great.
• Bake until a wooden skewer inserted in the center of the muffins comes out clean. It may take longer then time specified. For regular muffins, bake 20 to 25 minutes; for miniature muffins, bake 15 to 20 minutes; for giant muffins, bake 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from pans and serve warm or cool on a wire rack.
• Makes 12 regular muffins, 6 giant muffins, or 36 miniature muffins.
