Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and arrange two racks evenly spaced in the oven. Line two muffin pans with paper muffin cups.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and vanilla. Add the carrots, apple, pineapple, pecans, coconut, and raisins and stir together. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until combined. Scoop the batter with a standard (2 1/4-inch) ice cream scoop (I use rounded scoops of batter) into the prepared muffin cups. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Place the pans on a baking rack to cool and serve the muffins warm or at room temperature.

Tips:
- Grate carrots finely: Finely grated carrots will blend more evenly into the muffin batter, resulting in a smoother texture.
- Use fresh carrots: Fresh carrots have a sweeter taste and more vibrant color than store-bought, pre-shredded carrots.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough muffins. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill muffin cups to the top: Filling the muffin cups to the top will ensure the muffins rise evenly and have a domed top.
- Bake at a high temperature: Baking the muffins at a high temperature will help them rise quickly and develop a golden brown crust.
- Cool the muffins completely before storing: Allow the muffins to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
