Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups with a little oil.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then stir in the applesauce, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
Add the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the grated carrots, grated apple, raisins, and shredded coconut into the batter until distributed evenly.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature for a delightful morning energy boost.
