Orange Carrot Muffins image

This is a combination of a Weight Watcher's recipe and my own fiddeling... These are super moist, light and bursting with orange flavor! The crumb topping gives it just the right over the top kick!!

Add your crumb topping by sprinkling about 1tsp or so of crumb topping towards the center of the muffin. Bake for 20-25 minutes or when tested the tester is clean. Remove from oven, place on cooling racks for about 10 minutes. Remove muffins from tins and place on cooling racks till thoroughly cooled. Enjoy!
