Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.

Grate the carrots and set aside.

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

In another bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla until well combined.

Add the grated carrots to the wet mixture and stir until evenly distributed.

Combine the wet and dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.

Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
