How to Make Apple And Carrot Muffins

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease and flour the cups.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar.
3. Add 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans to the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
4. In a separate small bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Add 1 cup grated carrots and 1 cup peeled and diced apples (about 1 medium apple).
6. Gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
7. If the batter is too thick, add 2-4 tablespoons of milk until desired consistency is reached.
8. Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full.
9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy! (Optional: Top with cream cheese frosting)
