Our family favourite carrot muffins, made super quick by blitzing the carrots in the thermomix. I think this recipe came from a very old Alison Holst recipe. Even though I could convert the whole recipe for the thermomix, muffins are so easy to mix that it isn’t really necessary and plus it’s quite satisfying mixing baking by hand sometimes.
