Carrot Muffins

September 8, 2015 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 14 Comments

Carrot muffin recipe from A Spoonful of Sugar

I spent a couple of hours in the kitchen yesterday baking up a storm. It feels good to have the pantry and freezer restocked with some home baked treats. Muffins are always popular at our place – they freeze well and are perfect to pop into a lunchbox or bag as you head out to work or uni.

These muffins are moist and delicious, and full of yummy carrot and sultanas. They have lots of spices added which provide a wonderful flavour.

    Why is the brown sugar listed in 2 parts?
    These sound yummy!

      Hi Mary Thanks for letting me know. The correct amount of brown sugar is 3/4 cup. No ingredients were missing. The recipe does not include milk. The vegetable oil makes it quite a wet mix.

    Brown sugar is mentioned twice. Which measurement is correct, and what is the other ingredient?

    Those muffins look great! How spicy do the come out? Can I replace allspice with some cayenne (it seems to work as the “go to” spicy spice also)? Pinned!

      They are delicately spiced (think hot cross buns) rather than a hot spice. Not sure how they would go with pepper but I guess you could experiment.
