Instructions

1. Prepare all required ingredients. From the indicated amount, I got 36 small muffins.
   Peel, wash and dry the carrots. Wash the currants and sort out, removing the spoiled berries. Dry the currant berries on paper napkins. Muffins cook quite quickly, so the oven should be turned on in advance to heat up to 180 degrees.
