Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 36 muffin cups with baking liners.
- Grate the carrots (I use a box grater and use the second largest sized hole). Set aside.
- In a medium sized bowl, combine the carrots, flours, flax, baking powder and soda, cinnamon and allspice. Stir to mix well. Set aside.
- Combine the brown sugar and butter in a large bowl. Beat using a stand mixer or a hand mixer until smooth. Add the eggs and beat until incorporated. Stir in the yogurt, pumpkin, orange juice, and vanilla.
- Add the flour mixture to the sugar/butter/egg mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon until well mixed, but do not over beat.
- Add a scant 1/4 cup of batter to each muffin cup, making about 36 muffins in all. Bake at muffins at 350 degrees for 14-16 minutes, or until cooked through when tested with a toothpick. Remove muffins from the pan and cool on a wire rack completely.
- To freeze: Place completely cooled muffins into gallon sized freezer zip bags in one layer, about 9 will fit in a bag. Using a straw, remove any excess air and zip the bag. Place in the freezer, it's ok to stack the bags on top of each other, for up to 2 months (good luck getting them to last that long!).
- Remove as many muffins as you need at a time and either thaw at room temperature or heat in the toaster oven or microwave. Frost with the sweetened cream cheese, if desired.
- For the sweetened cream cheese: Place all the ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Alternatively, you can use a bowl and a hand mixer. Cream cheese will store for up to a week in the refrigerator. (I have not tested freezing it.).

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, measure and prepare all of your ingredients and equipment. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your muffins will taste. If possible, use organic ingredients for the best flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill the muffin cups evenly: Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. This will help the muffins rise evenly.
- Bake the muffins at the right temperature: The ideal baking temperature for pumpkin carrot cake muffins is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Baking them at a higher temperature will make them dry out.
- Don't overbake the muffins: Overbaking the muffins will make them dry and crumbly. Bake them just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool before frosting them: Let the muffins cool completely before frosting them. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
Conclusion:
These pumpkin carrot cake muffins are a delicious and healthy treat that are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. They are packed with nutrients and flavor, and they are easy to make. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these muffins a try. You won't be disappointed!
