  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Muffin Ingredients:

  • 1¼ cups white whole wheat flour (or all-purpose flour)
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon each ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup organic honey
  • ¼ cup avocado or olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1½ cups grated carrot
  • Optional: ½ cup raisins

Optional Icing Ingredients:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1–2 tablespoons milk (any type)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Heat oven to 350°F. Line a muffin pan with 12 paper liners or grease lightly. Set aside.

  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt until well combined.

  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, stir eggs, Greek yogurt, honey, oil, vanilla, carrots, and raisins (if using) until evenly mixed.

  4. Make the Batter: Add wet ingredients to the dry bowl. Stir until just combined, avoiding overmixing for the fluffiest texture.

  5. Fill the Muffin Cups: Portion the batter evenly into 12 muffin cups. Smooth tops gently with a spoon if needed.

  6. Bake to Perfection: Bake 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  7. Cool on a Rack: Transfer the pan to a wire rack and cool for 5–10 minutes. Remove muffins to finish cooling.

  8. Optional Icing: Whisk powdered sugar, honey, and milk until smooth. Drizzle over cooled muffins for a sweet glaze.
