Excited for our first post!!
Today at our normal 3.30 afternoon scrummysweets sweets break, we were bored of our usual hot cross buns, the ones we don't particularly enjoy (more about that later) so...
As work was not happening today we decided  to make something yummy to make to inspire us to keep working.
As Sophie is not eating sugar at the moment and us being too lazy to go to the shops for cake ingredients we decided to make these sugar free mini carrot muffins using ingredients we already had!




Loosely following an American recipe (using cups) we used a small coffee mug instead for our measurements and hoped for the best....

1 cup of self raising flour
Half a cup of melted butter
2 eggs
3 grated carrots
Good table spoon of honey(substitute for sugar)
1 and half teaspoons of cinnamon

And here is the result (using our perfectly placed props to make it look more appealing)..



Actually tasted pretty good, although a little more honey and some added raisins would have made them even better... We did manage however to scoff two each in the space of a few minutes so calling them a success considering they are basically sugar free and not having to spend a penny on ingredients! 

Around 90 calories each they are a new scrummy afternoon treat to be enjoyed with a cuppa... In fact boil the kettle we are onto our third! 

Enjoy :)
