- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt

directions
- Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl.

- ENJOY--they are best right out of the oven.
- For VEGAN do not use dairy milk but use the soy and do not add honey. Also if making for other Vegetarians make sure they consume honey before using.

I made the muffins exactly as the recipe said, and they turned out doughy, pale and stuck to the paper cups I baked them in. They took much longer to bake than the recipe says, and I had to use 2 cups of juice to make the batter even remotely similar to muffin batter I'm used to seeing. The recipe doesn't mention amounts of sweetner or spices, so mine turned out bland as well. Sorry, but I will definitely not be making these again. (The other recipe for carrot ginger muffins is very good - I made them twice).
