Mix and Rest Batter
Stir the batter thoroughly until all ingredients are combined, then let it rest for about 5 minutes. You'll notice the batter becomes slightly wetter and thinner as the juices from the carrots and apples release. Give it another quick stir. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared 12 muffin cups.

Recipe Tips & Suggestions
How to store
Once the carrot cake muffins are completely cooled, you can store them in sealed containers with paper towels. Make sure the muffins are on top of the paper towels, and you should also place one on top of the muffins. This will prevent the muffins from getting soggy because they will absorb the extra moisture. You can keep the muffins in the container for up to 4 days.
