I loved 'em! I made them for my dad for Father's Day and he said they were just like his mom used to make! I also doubled the spices as suggested and they turned out simply fantastic! Maybe a little more raisins next time though. Oh, and I plumped my raisins in warm water before adding them as well and they were plump and remarkably juicy! Yum Yum Yum!

i found this while searching for something to use up carrots. GREAT RECIPE! the only thing i changed was adding more of the spices, along with cardamom, and i had to make sour milk bc i had no buttermilk. i was brave and tried a double recipe--excellent!!i thought they were very sweet. the mini muffins turned out perfect too.

Hmm. I modified these & they were not so great. I thought I had wheat flour but didn't so used half regular & half sorghum flour. I then expected a more cake-like muffin & got it. I also used the bagged shredded carrots, about which I was conflicted, and I was right: they needed to be shred finer. Several reviewers stated that they stick to the pan so I used paper muffin cups, and they stuck to those also. I will not make again.

These muffins are healthier than the ones I usually make, due to the whole wheat flour and honey, however....perhaps equal amounts of whole wheat and regular flour would make them a bit lighter. A nice muffin overall.

I really like these muffins! The only thing I did differently was add a little wheat germ on top of the muffins before they baked...just a little something extra. Very good flavor, very moist. They freeze well too - a plus, since I'm usually the only one to eat muffins in my house. Just take one out of the freezer and defrost in the microwave for a few seconds...presto! Instant breakfast! Thanks for the recipe!

these were awful, tasteless even though I doubled the cinnamon and added 1/2 tsp of almond extract I ended up trashing the whole batch!

These muffins were great. I have been looking for a great tasting healthy breakfast muffin for a long time, and now my search is over! I did make a few adjustments - I doubled each spice ingredient (per other reviews) and I doubled the applesouce and halved the veggie oil. Not too sweet and the longer they sit (so the flavors can meld) the better they get!! Love this recipe. Thanks Sara.

I have to say that I wasn't very happy with the way that these turned out. I did increase the spices and added only 1/2 cup of raisins. But, they just weren't muffin like enough for what I was expecting.

I really like these because you can make them very healthy. I used only 1/4 c. raisins and added extra carrot. I made sure to squeeze the water out of the carrots too.

These were not quite what I expected, but definitely tasty. I made a few revisions: I plumped the raisins in warm water before adding, added chopped pecans, and increased the cinnamon to a teaspoon. Next time, I'll increase the other spices as well, and try to use more applesauce and less oil. They are not too sweet, a lot of carrot texture, without a lot of muffin, cakelike texture. DEFINITELY spray the muffin tin or liners, the muffins tend to stick.

Oh My Gosh! These muffins turned out so yummy - I just ate 3 in a row! I would highly recommend spraying the muffins tins/cups with oil as my muffins got stuck to the paper cups.
