Mondays are for MUFFINS!!!

Muffins ..... are just ugly cupcakes, Right!??!!? WRONG!! Muffins are AMAZING! The things you can put into muffins are mind blowing, like seriously! I don't know how many vegetables I've hidden into muffins my kids think are "dessert" - Bwhahahah Little do they know, Mom don't mess around like that!

So, I was wanting to make muffins the other day, and looked at what I had on hand. . .. . 
NOT MUCH! It was almost farmers market day, so I was pretty much OUT of fresh veggies for muffins! DO NOT FRET, I found some carrot juice in the fridge! So, with that I created this amazing recipe for what I am calling: 

CARROT SPICE MUFFINS

Sounds amazing right!?!??!?! WELL, they are!!! My husband and kids have been begging for me to make more since I made the first batch!!  They are amazing plain, or with just a small touch of butter on them (when they are warm of course). 

Disclaimer: I normally buy the Organic Carrot juice, however, this must have been where my organic normally is, and I grabbed it without looking! I am not going to just waste food, so I used it up. Just know my suggestion, is the Organic one - It is normally what we have in the fridge! 

Now, for this recipe, I am SO PROUD. This is my first 100% from scratch, I completely made it up recipe! For real, I about cried when it turned out and they were AMAZING! I REALLY want you all to make these, and let me know what you think!!

1/4 C Coconut oil (melted)
1/4 C Applesauce
3/4 C Carrot Juice

Slowly add dry ingredients into the wet, stirring until just combined (do not over-stir).  Put into a muffin tin (with or without liners, whichever you do) and bake 20 min, or until done.
