I received several requests for beet recipes so I did a trial run on my family and substituted raw shredded beets for the carrots in this recipe. My 7 year old helped prepare the muffins and was thrilled with the pink batter, although the pink color did fade as they baked. My 7 year old and my two teens all liked them. I did use whole wheat pastry flour, replaced the raisins with dried cranberries and added 1/8 tsp nutmeg for a little more depth. I also added shredded unsweetened coconut to a few of the muffins which I enjoyed.

Made these as mini muffins. Tasted great at first, but dry out quickly, maybe because of the small size. They are wonderful as long as you consume or freeze them right away! Very easy to make.
