METHOD
1. Preheat oven to 180°C and line/grease a muffin tray.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter and sugar. Cream with a whisk
until light and fluffy. Approximately 5-10 minutes of whipping with a whisk.
3. Next, whisk in the eggs until they are well combined with the butter/sugar
mixture. Next, whisk in the freshly squeezed Seville Orange fruit juice.
4. In another mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, lemon zest, baking
powder, baking soda, nutmeg and cloves. Mix until ingredients are evenly
dispersed in the flour.
5. Mix the flour mixture in with the egg mixture until just combined. Careful not
to over mix. Fold the shredded carrots into the muffin batter.
6. Scoop 2 Tbsp portions of the muffin batter into your prepared muffin tray.
Bake for 20 minutes (until golden brown). Carefully remove muffins from the
tray and let them fully cool on a wire rack. Serve and enjoy!
