Directions
Cream Cheese Filled Carrot Muffins, I love carrot cake, and muffins This recipe combines the 2 for an amazing treat!, I was disappointed with this recipe Pros: The spices were very nice, and they smelled wonderful while baking Cons: Although used ingredients that I thought would make them very moist (half honey, half brown sugar; coconut oil), they were a bit dry Perhaps I should have baked them for less time The cream cheese part just seemed like part of the cake of the muffin I was hoping it would be moister and creamier It had the same texture and flavor as the cake I was expecting more of a filling The kids ate them, but no one loved them Two days later, we have five left Around here, if something is very good, it’s gone in a day , these were delicious! i actually used pumpkin instead b/c i had no carrots and it was great with pumpkin i also used 1/3 fat cream cheese and found i had more than i needed but liked the muffins with a lot of filling the best! i also threw in some oats and walnuts and vanilla, oh and ginger deeelicious! i am excited to use carrots next time !
