Spiced Carrot Muffins from Happy Herbivore

Hey ladies, I just made these and they are super yummy!

Ingredients:
1 1/2 c. whole-wheat pastry flour (I'm sure you could just use regular flour too)
1 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp. allspice (optional)
1/2 c. raw sugar (It's brown and not as fine grained. I'm sure you could use regular sugar too.)
1 1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 large carrot, shredded (I used 5/6 baby carrots)


Mix the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and all the spices together. Then add the sugar, applesauce, vanilla, and shredded carrot and mix it all together. Spoon them into muffin tin, making them each about 3/4 full. Then bake on 350 for 18-25 minutes until a knife/toothpick comes out clean!


The recipe makes 1 dozen, so if you wanted to make it for a crowd you would want to double it. They are really good though!!
