CARROT AND ZUCCHINI MINI-MUFFINS

Steps:

• For the muffins: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 24 mini-muffin cups with (1 1/2-inch) paper liners. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, sieve together the flours, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon. Add any solids leftover in the sieve to the bowl and mix in.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the oil, syrup, and egg. Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Mix in the grated carrot, grated zucchini, and raisins.
• Using 2 small spoons, fill the prepared muffin cups 3/4 full with the batter and bake until light golden, about 15 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes. Transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• For the frosting: In a small bowl, mix together the cream cheese and honey until smooth.
• To serve: Spread the cooled muffins with frosting, if using, and serve.

INCREDIBLE CARROT ZUCCHINI MUFFINS

Steps:

• mix wet ingredients together well, mix dry ingredients in a separate bowl, combine the two by hand.
• pour batter into loaf pans or pour batter into mini muffin or regular muffin pans.
• bake in 350 degree oven.
• to get the most liquid out of the zucchini and carrots, freeze and defrost the shredded vegetables, the liquid will easily be squeezed out and contribute to a thicker batter, without doing this the batter will be a bit runnier and tend not to rise as nicely.
