Carrots make these muffins very moist; their flavor is highlighted by cardamom and ginger. The muffins are delicious spread with whipped cream cheese.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter 6 cups of a jumbo muffin tin (each cup should have a 1-cup capacity). Heat currants and 1 cup water in a small saucepan over low heat until currants are plump, about 20 minutes. Drain; let currants cool.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cardamom, and ginger in a medium bowl; set aside.
- Put eggs, oil, and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until combined. Reduce speed to low. Add the flour mixture in three batches, and mix until just combined after each addition. Fold in the carrots and currants.
- Pour batter into prepared muffin tin, leaving a 1/2-inch space above batter in each cup. Bake until tops are golden and a cake tester inserted into centers comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Let muffins cool in tin on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
- Remove tin from rack, and lightly oil rack. Run a thin knife around the sides of muffins to loosen, and unmold. Let cool completely on rack.
CARROT-CURRANT SPICE MUFFINS
This is my adjustment of a recipe from the Dec. 2004 issue of Martha Stewart Living. I wanted to make it healthier by adding more whole grains, so I did and it's yummy. Also, I have not added the orange peel myself yet, but I can tell it would be perfect. These are wonderful light muffins, stacked high and a beautiful color.

Estimated Reading Time 6 mins
- In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, milk, yogurt and vinegar in a mixing bowl, stir to coat, and allow to sit for 30-60 minutes to soften the oats (oatmeal style!) and give the vinegar a chance to work its magic. You can also pull your egg and carrots from the fridge to reach room temperature alongside it for best results. Out of all three test batches, the one I set out for an hour came out the fluffiest!
- Next preheat the oven to 375 F and grease a non-stick muffin pan by spritzing with spray oil or butter.
- In a clean bowl, combine flours, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, and salt.
- In the bowl with the wet oat mixture, stir in egg, butter, applesauce, vanilla, brown sugar, carrots, and currants and mix with a fork until fully incorporated.
