Another awesome recipe from my grainless girlie Lindsey Crouch at Guiltless Superfoods in Austin Texas! Gluten/wheat free, grainless, Paleo = YUMMY for the tummy!!!
Although I have not had wheat on purpose in over 8 years, in the last few years it's become obvious that my body just doesn't process any type of grain too well including rice and especially corn. Of course, it has been another challenge but I cannot argue with my body when it is screaming at me to stop eating certain foods! I started eating Lindsey and Daniel Crouch's grainless superfoods over a year ago and have fallen in love with their foodies and so has my body! I use their bread mostly now instead of any other bread and they now have their guiltless flour blend to make all sorts of goodies like these grainless Carrot Cake muffins which are on my bucket list!

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a regular 12-inch muffin pan with paper liners. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine coconut sugar, coconut oil, eggs, and vanilla. Beat until well mixed.
- Add in flour, baking powder, and cinnamon. Beat for another few minutes until thick and fully combined. Fold in carrots. Fold in pecans.
- Using a 1/4 measuring cup, fill muffin tins about 3/4 way full. *Sprinkle coconut sugar, shredded carrots, and chopped pecans on top each cup of muffin batter to garnish, optional.
