Sugar Free Carrot Cake Muffins

I am one of those people who cannot resist a good carrot cake or muffin.
Maybe that has to do with them not being chocolate or vanilla and thus, enjoying something different.

This is that carrot cake muffin recipe that does not come with a lot of added sugar in it.
By ‘added sugar’ I mean pineapple or any other kind of juice. The problem, as you may already know, about those fruit juices is that they are loaded with sugar. Usually that sugar did not get there naturally.

You will probably be happy to know that this is a rather simple recipe for carrot cake muffins.

That is because there are not a lot of fancy or different ingredients that you need for this. We will be using a couple of cheats instead.

You will need a box of sugar free yellow cake mix.
You can find sugar free yellow cake mix online. You will alos need a box of sugar free vanilla pudding mix, which you can also find online. Also, we will be using a few grated carrot as well as some seasoning.
