These rolls have a nice flavor...folks usually don't guess that carrots are one of the ingredients. My family really likes them; see if yours will, too!

These buns were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed these buns. I'm not usually a fan of carrot cake, but these buns were light and fluffy, and the carrot flavor was very subtle.

I love the idea of carrot buns, but this recipe didn't work out for me. The buns were too dense and didn't have much flavor.

These buns were a complete disaster! They were dense and dry, and they didn't taste anything like carrots.

I had some trouble getting the buns to rise properly. I think I might have overkneaded the dough.

These buns turned out so fluffy and moist! I was really impressed with how easy they were to make, too. I'll definitely be making these again!
