Carrot spiced muffins

This month we've stripped it back a bit, instead of making a meal we've chosen a more novice friendly recipe. These delicious (and Vegan friendly) muffins are a great savoury addition to your lunch or make a great healthy afternoon snack.  These can also be saved in a sealed container for several days…if they last that long!
