I made 6 muffins with this recipe. I used only all purpose flour. They are moist. The only thing I have to complain is that they don't taste enough carrot. It would be better with more carrot. And also next time I'll double the recipe to have 12 muffins. Thanks ratherbeswimmin :) Made for I Recommend tag game

Very tasty muffins, the carrots & poppy seeds make a nice pairing. Not sure why but this recipe only made 14 muffins for me in a double batch (which would only be 7 muffins if I had made as written). You will definitely want to 3-4x this recipe or so to get a larger batch. Lastly, watch bake time closely and pull as soon as they are ready. Mine were a bit dry but I think it was my fault for pulling them to late. Thanks!
