Hello everyone! Today I am sharing a recipe for carrot cake muffins that I made long time ago but never got around to post about it. This is also a reminder for myself to make them again soon as they are easy to prepare and taste really good!
I remember the first time I made these, I was quite sceptic about it but still curious as I saw a lot of carrot cake recipes on Pinterest at that time but since I enjoy making muffins more, I decided to go for that option and found this simple recipe as a taste test. My family was way more sceptic and they carefully took the first bite, I honestly expected they wouldn't like it but the opposite happened!
When it comes to baking and making cakes, maybe even food in general, I always go for simple and easy recipes that don't require a lot of time. That way I really enjoy making whatever I decide to make and it doesn't turn into frustrating, long task, haha. This recipe is a great example on how you can make something delicious from the simple ingredients pretty much every household has.
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl combine carrots and oil. Slowly add the dry mixture, stirring until just mixed. Add the beaten eggs and stir a few times. Fill the muffin tin 2/3. Bake for 13 minutes, a few more minutes if necessary.
You can also make some kind of a muffin topping cream, I think that would go so well with these kinds of muffins, I personally haven't tried it yet but I might do that next time!
All that is left to do is to enjoy the tasty carrot cake muffins, preferably with a cup of hot black coffee - that is my favorite combination. I hope you liked this recipe, let me know if you give it a try and if you have a favorite carrot cake recipe please share with me as I would love to know and try it. Thank you for stopping by! :)
