Ingredients
1/2 cup raisins (I like golden ones!)
1 & 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 & 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cardamom (Just omit, if you don't have it.)
1 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil  (I use 1/2 coconut oil; 1/2 olive oil)
1/2 cup sugar
3 & 1/2 cups shredded carrots (about 6 carrots)
3/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
Steps
  1. Preheat oven to 350° F.  Grease muffin tin cups.   
  2. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices in a bowl and set aside.
  3. With electric mixer on medium speed, mix together:  eggs, oil, and sugar until just combined.  
  4. Reduce mixer speed to low and add the flour mixture slowly.   Don't overmix!
  5. Fold in the carrots, raisins, and nuts.
  6. Pour batter into prepared muffin tin, leaving just a  bit of space above the batter in each muffin tin.  
  7. Bake for about 30 minutes until tops are golden and a knife inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Cool on a rack before serving (if you can wait)!
