Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a muffin tin with paper or silicone cupcake liners (or grease well with cooking spray).
- In a medium bowl whisk together flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl combine oil, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla and mix well. Stir in grated carrots.
- Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients until completely incorporated.
- Fill muffin liners 2/3 full.
- Bake in preheated oven for 20-22 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffins comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to continue cooling.
- Serve fresh or store in airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days, or in the fridge up to 2 weeks. Optional: reheat them in the microwave for about 15 seconds and spread a little butter on top for the ultimate breakfast treat.
Notes
- For cinnamon lovers: Double the cinnamon!
- These can be made in mini muffin tins, simply reduce the time and pull them out when an inserted toothpick comes out clean besides a few moist crumbs.
