Receta Wholesome Spiced Carrot Muffins
by Jelli

We ran out of cereal. For Husband, this was a pretty big deal, since he’d been forced to eat overnight oats with Summer and I for three days straight. Oatmeal is his kryptonite.

I made wholesome spiced carrot muffins to get him out of his breakfast funk.

They’re loads more nutritional than the Lucky Charms knockoff he’d been munching and a great breakfast or anytime treat for the whole family.

Muffins are not cupcakes. Many muffin recipes have more sugar than full-fledged cakes. That’s a sham. Let’s just call those what they are, folks- cupcakes.

These carrots muffins are moist and delicious without being overly sweet. I feel good about eating them for breakfast and especially about feeding them to my toddler who still doesn’t dine on sweets.

These wholesome spiced carrot muffins will definitely be showing up in my kitchen again very soon. Like, probably next week soon.
