Step-by-Step Instructions for Carrot Oatmeal Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin tin.

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, vegetable oil, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  5. Fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full with the batter.
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes until muffins are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Cool the muffins in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
