The other day we decided to make some muffins and thought we would play around with flavours a little. These little Pineapple Carrot muffins are quite similar to my Apple Pumpkin Cakes in terms of savoury and sweet flavours. Surprisingly you can barely taste the carrot. These taste like delicious pineapple muffins with a hint of vanilla and cinnamon.
