ULTIMATE SUNRISE CARROT MUFFINS
Full of nutritious goodies, kids and health-nuts love them! Great for breakfast on the go! Easily veganized and full of fiber. I think raisins would also be a nice addition, but they are not part of this recipe. It really helps if you have a food processor to grate the carrots and apples, but it's not necessary.

SAVORY SUNRISE MUFFINS
I made this on on a whim, and we loved it! I used a muffin tin, but this would work even better with ramekins. This is not at all a fussy recipe. Your dough doesn't have to precise, and don't fret if you can't quite tuck the top dough in the cups. Just do the best you can, and it will still come out great!

Tips:
- Choose the right carrots. Fresh, organic carrots are best. Look for carrots that are firm and have a deep orange color.
- Grate the carrots finely. This will help them distribute evenly throughout the muffins and prevent them from becoming too chunky.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill the muffin cups evenly. This will help the muffins rise evenly.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will take about 20-25 minutes.
- Let the muffins cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
- Enjoy! Carrot muffins are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast.
