I seem to be using oats in a lot of my baking of late, I don’t know whether it’s because oats remind me of winter food but it shall be interesting to see how long it lasts! There’s something about oats in cookies that makes them feel healthier and more filling, and with the addition of fruit and nuts you could almost eat these for breakfast!
Recipe: Carrot Walnut & Raisin Muffins
A colleague brought in some carrot cupcakes to work recently and it reminded me that I hadn’t done any baking with carrots for a long time, and I do love me some carrot cake! I decided to go a slightly healthier route (removing the cream cheese icing helps!) and went with carrot muffins instead, which naturally called for the addition of walnuts and raisins.
