HONEY CARROT AND DATE MUFFINS



Honey Carrot and Date Muffins image

I can't count the number of times I have made these delicious gluten-free muffins. They are quick, easy, and absolutely scrumptious. I used to "make a date" with my carrot grater on many a lazy Saturday afternoon, and make a quadruple batch to take for snacks at work; and there were many grateful snouts. These muffins freeze really well. But I prefer the "straight out of the oven and gobble" approach. The piggy in me always feels like this is the way to get the most "bang for your buck" with gluten free baking. Straight out of the oven, these muffins are moist, springy and just perfect. They have such a rich flavour that they don't need any spread. In fact, I have had some people tell me they are a little too rich after consuming 3 or 4! Make a date with these muffins and you won't be disappointed.
