Carrot Cake Muffins image

These are a twist between a cinnamon roll and carrot cake cupcakes. You'll just have to roll your eyes and say 'Mmmmm' when you take your first bite! Another topping idea would be to sprinkle the muffins with a cinnamon-sugar mixture before baking. Top with a vanilla glaze.

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup milk
2 eggs
2 tablespoons applesauce, or more as needed
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
⅔ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup shredded carrots
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
