- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the grated carrots, chopped apples, and chopped nuts.
- Fill the muffin cups about ¾ full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
