Why do we have the Carrot as our logo for Anne Taylor Catering? Because it is the most versatile, tasty and eye-popping ingredient in the vegetable world. And… after all, we are All about fresh food for your healthy catering event. It naturally adds texture and flavor to most any recipe from baked goods to spaghetti sauce!
We want to show you how we incorporate carrots into one of our favorite recipes with healthy alternatives to using butter and oil in your baked goods. We love to use applesauce, Greek yogurt or bananas instead of oil to add natural moisture.
Try our Carrot craisin muffins… one of our mainstay favorites for brunch or to accompany salads.
Recipe:
2 cups flour (unbleached or whole wheat)
2 Tsp. baking soda
2 Tsp. cinnamon
1/4 salt
1/2 cup organic cane sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
6 medium carrots (or 2 cups)
1 1/4 cup craisins
3 large eggs
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
2 tsp. vanilla
1 large granny smith apple, shredded
Set oven to 350 degrees. Grease 18 muffin cups. Sift together flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt, then add in both sugars. Coarsely chop carrots to measure 2 cups packed. Add in the carrots and raisins to the flour mixture, toss well to combine. Whisk together eggs, oil and vanilla. Add in the shredded apple to the egg mixture and then add to the flour mixture until just combined. Fill muffin tins three-quarters full and bake for about 15-20 minutes.
