CARROT CUPCAKES WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
Steps:
- For the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 F. Prepare three 12-cup standard muffin tins with cupcake liners.
- Add the oil and eggs to a large bowl and beat with a hand mixer until lighter in color. With the mixer running, add the granulated sugar, cinnamon, salt, baking soda and vanilla, until well combined. Add the flour to the bowl and mix just until incorporated. Fold in the coconut, walnuts, pineapple and carrots with a rubber spatula. Scoop about 1/4 cup batter into each cupcake liner and bake two of the tins, switching and rotating the position of the tins halfway through, until deep golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Cool completely in the muffin tins on a rack. Bake and cool the remaining tin in the same manner.
- For the frosting: Meanwhile, cream the butter, cream cheese and powdered sugar together in a large bowl with a hand mixer until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and salt, then add the milk 1 tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached. Top each cupcake with about 2 tablespoons frosting and swirl with the back of the spoon. Top with freshly grated nutmeg.

Steps:
- Combine cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla extract for frosting in a medium bowl. Mix briskly until smooth and well blended. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
- Blot grated carrots for garnish dry with a clean kitchen or paper towel. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl to combine. Remove any clumps from brown sugar; add to the flour mixture and stir with the whisk to combine. Add carrots and stir until completely coated. Stir in almond milk, oil, maple syrup, and vanilla and mix just until incorporated. Batter will be soupier than typical cake batter but, if batter is too loose, you can add additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.
- Divide the mixture amongst the prepared muffin cups.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Place the pans on wire racks to cool for about 15 minutes. Carefully remove the cupcakes from the pan and allow to cool on the wire rack for an additional 15 minutes.
- Frost with cream cheese frosting and garnish with grated carrots.

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the grated carrots and the oil. Slowly add the flour mixture, stirring until just mixed. Add the beaten eggs and stir a few times (like 15 or less around the bowl – the fewer the better)!
- Grease a muffin tin or use paper liners. Scoop the batter into a muffin tin, filling each muffin tin about 2/3 of the way up the side. Bake for 13 minutes, check how they’re doing, and add a few minutes if necessary. I find that the baking time varies greatly with oven, so just check for the right golden brown color and springy tops. Allow the cupcakes to cool.
- For the frosting, blend the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until smooth. Slowly beat in the powdered sugar until smooth. Transfer to a plastic bag or similar tool for piping the frosting evenly on the cupcakes.
