- In a large bowl, combine the flour, millet, spices, baking powder, and salt.. Give a quick stir and set aside.

- Divide batter evenly into 12 muffins and bake for 22-25 minutes or until a knife is inserted and comes out clean. Store muffins in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days or freeze for longer storage.

If the carrots seem moist, place in a colander and press out as much of the liquid as you can.
