I have awesome friends who ask me for things I would never think to make, but that I love once I make them.  I've wanted muffins for sometime now.  I made some a few weeks ago with some leftover premium GF flour from the US.  They were amazing.  But I can't get that flour here, so I've been a little reluctant to try and blend some flours to recreate the muffins.  Those were blueberry muffins.  Other than pancakes and waffles, its the only way I'll eat cooked blueberries.  Maybe in the coming weeks, I'll post a recipe that will do blueberry muffins justice.  But my friend wanted carrot muffins!  She said she was able to buy some in a store, sometimes.  They didn't always have them in stock and her family liked them a lot.  I set out to try and buy these muffins, so that I knew what she was looking for, but of course, they didn't have any in stock on the day I went.  I don't even know who makes them, but I'm assuming it is a local bakery here in Ottawa.  So I headed to my preferred gluten free bakery to buy snacking cupcakes (so I wouldn't starve to death while baking), and lo and behold!  they had carrot muffins.  So I bought some to try them.  They were full of goodness.  Apple sauce, pineapple, carrots...  lots of stuff.  The muffins were so moist and tender than they were almost wet.  Yet, their taste was rather bland.  I wasn't really a fan.  So I ate my cupcakes and started trials in the kitchen.  In total, there were 3 different variations to these muffins, not counting the time I forgot the sugar.  Don't do that.  Your muffins will be nasty.  Trust me on this.

This is the final version.  My preferred muffin.  Thank you RW for helping me along and offering some amazing critique.
