Furthermore, I would like to share some of my suggestions for making carrot muffins. Firstly, I like this muffin very much because it is so easy and simple to make. All you need are two bowls, one for wet ingredients and another for dry ingredients. The two are then combined together and you are done. Secondly, in this recipe, I have used grated apple but you can also use the unsweetened applesauce. Finally, bake it for 20 to 23 mins or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffin comes out clean.
