been baking plenty lately, it's been a land since I prepared myself a mid-afternoon workday snack. (I've been subsisting on store-bought muesli bars, which are tasty plenty but far less nutritious than you lot powerfulness think.) I picked these carrot too peanut muffins from my to-cook listing mainly because we've had an unloved parcel of peanuts inwards the closet for some time. Once those peanuts are solid set down up, this recipe's a cinch - there's no ask for an electrical mixer, too I conveniently ignored the flake where Clotilde piped the batter into a mini-muffin tray. Instead I plonked hearty spoonfuls into a standard-sized muffin pan.
Let me enjoin you lot what's practiced nigh these muffins - they're moist too nutty, merely a lilliputian sweet, too they receive got lovely golden caramelised edges. The texture reminds me of cakes that receive got been made primarily amongst almond meal. Yet these muffins didn't conform me, somehow - I didn't pass the afternoon looking frontward to eating one. When some other last-minute invitee speaker presented themselves at operate afterward inwards the week, I shared the remaining nine muffins around too hoped that ane of my colleagues powerfulness appreciate these to a greater extent than than I did - they sure enough deserve to live loved.
Carrot & peanut muffins

4 eggs
160g raw sugar
160g solid set down peanuts
60g evidently flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
pinch of salt
1/4 teaspoon warm spice mix (I used shakes of cinnamon, ginger, star anise too cloves)
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C too either grease or business a muffin tray amongst papers.
Put the grated carrot too eggs into a large bowl too trounce them amongst a fork until they froth upward a bit. Beat inwards the sugar, thus the peanuts. Sift inwards the flour, baking powder, common salt too spices too mix until merely combined.
Spoon the batter into the muffin tray too bake for 15-18 minutes (use the skewer exam to banking enterprise agree when they're ready).
