Sugar Free Carrot Cake Muffins remind me of a cupcake that is good enough to eat for breakfast.

Even better, this recipe is all about carrots which are something that I like to eat!

The perfect breakfast or brunch idea in a muffin.

I like that this recipe can be made without adding any sugar to it!
 

If you have tried my Air Fried Carrot Cake then you will probably like this recipe.

That carrot cake recipe really is a lot about making a cake in an air fryer.
This recipe however, is about that luscious carrot cake in a muffin.

This is what I would call a recipe for healthy carrot muffins.

I say this because the ingredients that are used in this recipe include fresh carrots.
As we know, carrots have a pretty good reputation for being healthy.

This recipe also does not include added sugar in it.

I am someone who is always looking how to avoid adding sugar to what I make and consume. This recipe is no exception.
 

This easy recipe for carrot cake muffins comes with a hack.

By 'hack' I mean a way to avoid having to measure and add a bunch of different ingredients.
Instead of adding a bunch of ingredients, you will need a box of Sugar Free Yellow Cake mix. The cake mix will come with the flour, sugar alternative, and even the leavening agent needed for this recipe.

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 also have the option of making your own Sugar Free Yellow Cake Mix.

I have a recipe for making your own Yellow Cake without adding sugar here. Also needed is sugar free vanilla pudding mix which you can find here.

Here are some tips for making these muffins.

I just mentioned that we will be using the hack of using Sugar Free Yellow Cake mix for this recipe. To make these carrot cake muffins moist, we will use sugar free vanilla pudding mix which you can find here.

Here are some more muffin baking tips for you.

  1. Adding chopped nuts is a popular idea when it comes to anything carrot and baked it seems. Feel free to add some chopped walnuts or other nut if desired.
  2. I always tell my readers that when it comes to making muffins, it is especially important to not over-mix the batter as this can result in muffins that are harder to chew. Simply mix your ingredients until just blended instead.
  3. While this recipe calls for vanilla pudding mix, feel free to use an alternative pudding mix flavor instead. I like this idea of cheesecake pudding mix or maybe banana flavored pudding mix.

 

Here is how to store muffins.

In the event that you have leftover muffins, simply store them in an air tight container, such as a muffin container. Refrigeration is not necessary as the muffins should be good for a few days if stored correctly.

  • Also, Sugar Free Vanilla Instant Pudding- 1 package (four servings).
  • And, Sugar Alternative- equivalent to 2 tablespoons of sugar.
  • Ground Cinnamon with no sugar added- 2 ½ teaspoons.
  • Eggs- 4 whipped.
  • Water- ⅔ cup.
  • Oil such as vegetable- ¾ cup.
  • Carrots- 3 cups grated. That is like a cup and a half.

    As much as I'd love to make the sugar free carrot muffins, I can only have stevia. Any other sugar alternative, my body reacts to.
    Suggestions?

      Hi. I know that there are Stevia Blends that are 1:1 with sugar in volume. However, they are usually bulked up to do so with other ingredients such as sugar. As a result, the muffins will be low sugar rather than sugar free. Thank you!
