Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups Brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cups Shredded carrots
- 0.5 cups Chopped walnuts (optional)
- 0.5 cups Raisins (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter; it’s okay if a few lumps remain.
Fold the shredded carrots, walnuts (if using), and raisins (if using) into the batter until evenly distributed.
Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of one comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your delectable morning muffins!
