We love these muffins. They are perfect for a healthy breakfast or snack. I quadruple the recipe, cool and wrap each in plastic wrap and put them into a zip-lock bag and freeze. I have given them to sick friends, family, and neighbors. Changes I have made include adding both sunflower and chia seeds, adding some drained crushed pineapple and using the pineapple juice in place of the orange juice. I do not peel the apple or the carrot and you cannot detect any difference. I figure to leave the peel on just adds additional fiber. I make sure to thoroughly wash them though. I like that the muffins are not overly sweet, but sweet enough to be satisfying. The chia seeds contribute to a feeling of fullness following eating just one of them and they are very healthy. Thank you for this and all the other great recipes you provide. Thanks so much for the suggested tweaks - I've actually always peeled carrots, but you're right, if they're well-washed, why do it? The extra fiber is good. And great idea about freezing individually - I'm going to try that, too. Thanks for your feedback! PJH
