Tips for Making Carrot Applesauce Pineapple Muffins:

- For a more intense carrot flavor, use a combination of grated carrots and carrot juice in the batter. - If you don't have applesauce, you can substitute mashed bananas or pumpkin puree. - To make the muffins even more moist, add a cup of chopped walnuts or raisins to the batter. - For a crunchy topping, sprinkle the muffins with a mixture of brown sugar and chopped pecans before baking. - Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will dry out the muffins.
