1
Preheat oven to 400 F and line a 12-count standard size muffin tin with liners (don't skip the liners or the muffins will be impossible to get out of your tin).
2
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, ground flax seed, baking powder, baking soda, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt.
3
In a separate, small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, agave, applesauce, coconut yogurt, water and vanilla. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until just incorporated. Don't over-mix! Fold in the carrots and walnuts.
4
Scoop batter into the muffin liners. You'll want to fill them right up to the top to get 12 large muffins.
5
Bake for about 15-17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Remove from oven. Cool for at least 5 minutes.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
