Carrot Cake Muffins


Happy Monday Friends!
Today has been a good Monday!
I have been able to clean my kitchen floors, start and get several batches of laundry done. 
Yes... that is good news for me. 
Mondays are my laundry days. I don't like to do the laundry on Saturdays because I want to be outdoors... playing! 
Mondays... are laundry and muffin day!

I decided to try a new recipe from King Arthur. I follow them on instagram and they always share amazing recipes! 

Carrot Cake Muffins. 
The muffin that will make your breakfast or brunch a delight!


Here is the recipe...

I really enjoyed these muffins!
They are full of carrots. Fresh orange carrots. This is a thick and hearty muffin.
