First, mix the dry ingredients thoroughly in a smaller dish. Then in a separate larger bowl, combine the carrots and zucchini along with the coconut oil, brown sugar and pure vanilla extract.
Once these ingredients are evenly mixed, you can start to slowly add in the dry ingredients. Add a little at a time until all is just combined, ensuring that you do not over mix.
Next, grease a mini muffin and add a bit of batter to each muffin indentation.
Then bake at 350 degrees F for about 9 to 12 minutes, or until these mini carrot muffins are spongy on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
