Ingredients
  • 1½ cups white whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ cup butter (1 stick), melted
  • ½ cup honey
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • ¾ cup carrot shreds
Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin pan with paper, foil, or silicone liners, and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
  3. In a large bowl vigorously whisk together the butter, honey, egg and vanilla. Slowly add in the flour mixture until well combined. The batter will be fairly thick at this point.
  4. Using a spatula, carefully fold in the applesauce and carrots. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. Bake for 22 to 24 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean and muffins are beginning to turn golden brown on top.
