Best Carrot Muffins
By PKMom
These carrot muffins are the best! Moist, pleasantly spiced and full of carrots, raisins, walnut and coconut. I love them with a cup of tea in the afternoon. If you’re looking to cut a bit of fat from these, you can substitute 1/2 cup applesauce for a 1/2 cup of the oil
