Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe carrots and pineapple. This will give your muffins the best flavor and texture.
- Grate the carrots finely. This will help them distribute evenly throughout the muffins.
- Use crushed pineapple in its own juice. This will add moisture and sweetness to the muffins.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
- Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full. This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help prevent them from breaking.
