Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375℉. Set out 16 silicon muffins cups or spray muffin tins.
Using a medium grater, shred carrot into a large bowl. Add raisins and brown sugar. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, spices, and salt.
Beat the eggs into the shredded carrot mixture. Stir in the apple, pecans, oil, vanilla, and orange zest until combined.
Add the flour mixture and stir slowly until just combined.
Using a cookie scoop separate the batter evenly between the muffin cups.
Bake the muffins for 20-25 minutes until they are domed, slightly browned and spring back when touched.
Allow muffins to cool slightly and enjoy. They are excellent warm or room temperature.
Can be frozen if desired. Microwave for one minute to thaw.
