Optional: If you wish, use half all-purpose flour and half whole wheat flour. Whole wheat flour is processed less than all-purpose flour to retain more nutrients and fiber, however, it may have a courser texture.
Optional: If you wish, substitute white sugar for brown sugar. Brown sugar isn’t any healthier but it has more of a rich, molasses taste some people prefer.
Remember: This recipe makes at least 36 muffins! If you have extra, just freeze for another day or another event!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix together the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in the carrots, raisins, coconut, apples, and nuts (if using). In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the oil and vanilla. Add to the flour mixture and combine well. Spoon the batter into greased or paper-lined muffin tins and bake 35 minutes.
