Carrot/Apple/Coconut Muffins

First I apologize for the picture. If you follow my other blog you know me and cameras (especially the one I own now), have a tough relationship.

Coconut KILLS my stomach, so I omitted the coconut from this recipe. This round of muffins was for my ever-attempting-fail-some-success tries at getting Emily to eat fruits/veggies.

I think they turned out ok. However, I do not have a grater (I definitely need one I realized), so I did not grate the carrots and apples like the recipe says to do. I chopped them up into very tiny pieces, but still, it did not work so well. The pieces tend to fall out and of course, Emily does not want to eat whole pieces of carrots … ooooh the horror!

So if you try this recipe, it is better to actually grate the ingredients.

Sorry for the blurry picture.
