Carrot Cake Muffins

I have been on a total carrot cake kick lately. I had no idea how much I liked carrot cake. Partly because I have always been way too lazy to make it. Grating carrots is hard work. But then I discovered the power of the food processor. Peel a couple carrots, chop off the ends, and stick in a food processor. 30 seconds later you have all the “grated” carrot you need for carrot…whatever! And today it is carrot coffee cake muffins.

You bake them at 450 degrees, and they will get this puffy dome. The sour cream inside of them make the carrot cake muffins ultra moist and light in texture. And the cinnamon streusel topping just makes them perfect. Especially if you want to enjoy them with a cup of coffee.

These carrot cake muffins come together so quick you could whip them up in the morning to eat fresh, but I particularly enjoy them when they are a day or two old and the flavors have a chance to mature and meld together.
