The muffin recipe is perfect for getting vegetables into your breakfast meal. It is a combination of tasty muffin with the added nutrients that come from the carrots. These carrot muffins are super simple to make and can be made ahead for the week. This recipe can even stored in the freezer and used for later! 

  • Author: Jessica Beardsley
  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 20-25 minutes
  • Total Time: 30-35 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins 1x

Ingredients

Scale

 

  • 1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 – 1/2 cup milk

    Yes,Hello,
    I’m so glad to get thr recipe. I’m having a problem with the zoom on my phone. Someone is supposed to come and help find out what happened. I’m new at this and didnt get all the answers before we all had to shelter in place.
    Thank you, I enjoy the program.

    Moist. Delicious. I think I could still cut sugar in half and it would still taste wonderful!

    I’d post a pic but didn’t see option to do so.
