Glazed Ginger Carrot Muffins Recipes

CARROT GINGER MUFFINS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line a 12 cup muffin pan with paper liners and spray the insides of the liners lightly with spray oil.
• Toast the pecans on a sheet pan in the oven for about 5 to 10 minutes, until fragrant. Set aside to cool.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, brown sugar, vegetable oil, grated ginger, vinegar, and vanilla extract.
• In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ground ginger, baking soda, and salt.
• Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a rubber spatula until just combined.
• Fold in the carrots, raisins, and pecans.
• Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Let the muffins cool in the pan on a wire rack for ten minutes, and then remove the muffins from the pan to continue to cool on the wire rack.
• Store the muffins in an airtight container.
