22 Reviews of Banana Carrot Muffins

From: Fanged Menace

On Sep 26, 2005

I found myself without shortening, so I used an equal amount of butter, and they were delightful. Unlike many, these muffins don't stick to the paper liners, which I consider to be a fine quality in a muffin. I halved the recipe and got 16 muffins, considered surprising my coworkers with breakfast tomorrow and decided to put them in the freezer instead. All mine!

    tried the recipe, used half suger, half brown sugar for more home taste, and LOVED THEM. My kids are gonna love them. Easiest, and yummiest taste. Thank you so much!

    These are GREAT!!!! I did use splenda,egg beaters,and fat-free margerine. This morning when I made carrot juice, I used the carrot pulp for my carrots. Thanks so much for posting. I will sure be making these often.

    I just made these.... I halved the recipe and made 24 mini muffins in the oven, and 3 large in the microwave (just in unlined paper cups on a plate). The are very tasty and not too sweet (a good thing for me). My 2 and 1 year olds helped and really liked them. Keep in mind that the microwaved muffins are more bread like and did not brown. (this corrects my review just sent!)

    Halved the recipe, used brown sugar instead of white, and added a small can of fruit cocktail (instead of oj) to the food processor with the fresh carrots and two ripe bananas. Delicious banana flavor, and my toddler loves them. Thanks!

    I liked them but I loved the fact it used canned carrots!!! I used brown sugar instead of white. I had only 4 bananas & I did the fruit cocktail instead of OJ like suggested in one reviews so I put the fruit cocktail in a food processor I took out the pineapple & cherry pieces, I poured in 1/2 cup of juice/pieces to the batter. I have a 10 month old & didn't want him to have citrus since its not recommended till 1 year. He liked the muffins & so did my husband & I. Next time I may try the applesauce/butter instead of Crisco it just sounds healthier. I filled very full since they don't rise much I had 29 muffins.

    Thanks for the recipe! The muffins came out very tasty. I love the banana flavour. Instead of using crisco, i substitute with margerine at room temperture.
