These carrot muffins are loaded with grated carrots and raisins. I run a day care and was looking for a tasty, low-sugar treat to feed the kids, so I came up with this recipe. The kids love them and now the parents ask for the recipe!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup raisins
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 3 cups shredded carrots

  2. 2

    Soak raisins in 2 cups water in a small bowl for 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.

    Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together in a bowl.

  5. 5

    Beat oil, brown sugar, and eggs in a large bowl with an electric mixer until well combined.

    Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 2/3 full.

    Cool in the tins for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
