Carrot Muffin

Carrot Muffin

EverydaySweetened

A carrot muffin is a sweetened baked good that incorporates shredded carrots, warm spices like cinnamon or nutmeg, and often mix-ins such as walnuts or raisins. While carrots provide natural sweetness and a modest amount of fiber and beta-carotene, commercial and homemade versions typically contain added sugars and oils that significantly increase calorie density. These muffins balance dessert-like indulgence with the perceived nutritional benefits of vegetable inclusion, commonly positioned as a breakfast or snack option.
