Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups with cooking spray.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves until well combined. Set aside.
-
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in tough muffins.
-
Gently fold in the shredded carrots and chopped nuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
-
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
-
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once the muffins have cooled, you can optionally top them with a simple cream cheese glaze or dust them with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
