After the holidays and one too many delicious desserts Jim and I decided that we needed to give up refined sugars for a little while. We just felt like our bodies needed a little break from sugar. We decided that we didn’t want to give up all sugar and were okay with using honey or maple syrup in moderation. I was browsing around Pinterest and stumbled on these. The ingredients sounded great. White Whole Wheat flour, no refined sugar, and carrots! I’ll let you in on a little secret here….I’m one of those few people that has never tried carrot cake. I know crazy right?! I decided to give these muffins a try and I’m so glad I did because they are delicious. Moist, full of flavor from the spices, and even a little crunch from the carrots. These are perfect for a quick breakfast, snack, or a great addition to your child’s lunch box!

 Bottom line, if you are looking for something to satisfy your sweet tooth without refined sugars then make these muffins!
