Gluten-free iced muffins
- 1Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Grease a 12-hole (1/3-cup) muffin pan with a little of the oil. Whisk remaining oil, eggs, apple puree, milk and half the zest in a bowl until combined. Sift 1/3 cup of the icing sugar over mixture; whisk until combined and smooth. Stir in carrot and seed mix until combined.

- 3Sift remaining icing sugar into a bowl. Stir in remaining zest and enough juice to form a smooth paste. Spread icing over cooled muffins. Stand for 15 minutes to set. Serve.
