Ingredients

  • 2 cups quick oats
  • 1 cup white flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups carrots, grated
  • 1/2 cup 2% milk
  • 1/2 cup icing sugar

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease a muffin tin.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the quick oats, white flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Whisk until well combined.

In a separate bowl, combine the brown sugar, molasses, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until just combined.

Fold in the grated carrots.

Gradually add the 2% milk to the batter, stirring until the mixture is consistent.

Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup 3/4 full.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then remove them from the tin and let them cool completely on a wire rack.

Once the muffins are completely cooled, whisk together the icing sugar and 2 tablespoons of milk to create a glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the top of each muffin before serving.
