And pretty easy, too, if you have a food processor…a good way to sneak veggies into the kinderbots.  Naturally, this is the food of the Uber-Orange.

CARROT PINEAPPLE MUFFINS  

1 c. sugar

2 eggs

1 1/2 c. flour

1 c. grated carrot

1 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. cinnamon

2/3 c. oil

1 tsp. vanilla

1/2 c. drained crushed pineapple

Beat eggs and sugar. Add remaining ingredients and beat well. Fill greased muffin tins 3/4 full. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Yield 12

The Inevitable Substitution:  I rarely have canned pineapple in the cabinet, but I did happen to have canned apricots.  I crushed half a can in their juice and that did quite nicely.  The muffins were good and moist.  Well, I guess they oughta be, with 2/3 cup of oil.
