Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality carrots. This will give your muffins the best flavor and texture.
- Be sure to grate the carrots finely. This will help them distribute evenly throughout the muffins and prevent them from becoming too chunky.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough and dense.
- Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full. This will allow the muffins to rise properly without overflowing.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can make the muffins dry and crumbly.
- Let the muffins cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
