Delicious and healthy vegan muffins packed with the flavors of carrot and warm spices.
Combine all the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
Ensure the dry ingredients are well mixed to distribute the leavening agents evenly.
In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients until smooth.
Mixing the wet ingredients separately helps to ensure a smooth batter.
Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to prevent the muffins from becoming dense.
Fold in the grated carrots and raisins.
Gently fold to maintain the airiness of the batter.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare the muffin pan with non-stick spray.
Ensure the oven is fully preheated before baking for even cooking.
Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling them about 3/4 full.
Use an ice cream scoop for evenly sized muffins.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Rotate the pan halfway through baking for even browning.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling on a wire rack prevents the muffins from becoming soggy.
