There are many ways to vary this recipe; substitute grated zucchini for the carrot, and try dried blueberries, currants, or raisins in place of the cranberries.

  • 1 cup whole-wheat flour
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2-1⁄2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

  • 1⁄3 cup butter, melted
  • 1 egg
  • 1⁄2 to 2⁄3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup finely grated carrot

My husband is a very picky eater and I have tried so many things. This is one I have to make 2 times a week; he takes it in his lunch and all the guys at work send me donations because they love them too. – Reviewed by deez blue

Great muffins. I used white flour because I did not have any whole wheat at the time and they turned out just as well. Everyone in my family wants me to bake more. – Reviewed by Grant Evans
