Description

Favorite Carrot Muffins that are warm, cozy, and wholesome! A naturally sweet snacking muffin flecked with tiny bits of carrots and oats, smeared with some butter and honey. YES.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 8 medjool dates, pits removed
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup real maple syrup
  • 34 carrots, peeled and shredded (about 2 cups total)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • pinch of salt
  • walnuts or raisins (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grate your carrots.
  2. Mix all ingredients in a blender until a chunky batter comes together.
  3. Pour batter into a greased or lined muffin tin. Bake for 15-18 minutes, until the tops gently spring back when you press into them.
  4. Smear warm muffins with butter and/or honey. Attempt not to eat them all. Serve warm or cold ALL DAY LONG. ♡

Notes

If your dates are on the firm side, soak them in hot water for a bit first so they are easier to blend!
