Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups all-purpose flour (can sub 1 cup for whole wheat flour or all for white whole wheat flour)
1 cup rolled oats + a couple extra tablespoons for topping
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 cup milk (can substitute unsweetened almond milk)
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce*
1/3 cup canola oil
1 large egg
2-3 medium carrots (finely grated (about 2 cups))

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.

SPICY CARROT MUFFINS



Spicy Carrot Muffins image

This recipe is from 'Robin Hood Home Baking', a book that I got for Christmas several years ago. The first time I tasted these muffins I knew that I would no longer have to search for another carrot muffin recipe-these are the best! I followed the directions exactly, but omitted the walnuts. Sometimes I use half whole wheat flour too. I always double the recipe and try to sneak a few away for the freezer;)

Tips:

  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be sure to grease the muffin tins well to prevent the muffins from sticking.
  • To test if the muffins are done, insert a toothpick into the center of one muffin. If it comes out clean, the muffins are ready.
  • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before enjoying them.

Conclusion:

These Spiced Carrot Oatmeal Muffins are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They're packed with carrots, oats, and spices, and they're naturally sweetened with maple syrup. They're also easy to make, so you can enjoy them even on busy mornings.
