Steps:
- Make cupcakes:
- Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle. Line muffin cups with paper liners.
- Coarsely grate enough carrots to measure 2 cups using large teardrop holes of a box grater.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg in a bowl.
- Whisk together oil, eggs, brown sugar, grated carrots, and vanilla in a large bowl, then stir in flour mixture until just combined.
- Divide batter among muffin cups and bake until golden and a wooden pick inserted into center of a cupcake comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Cool in pan on a rack 10 minutes. Remove cupcakes from pan and cool completely on rack, about 1 hour more.
- Make icing:
- Sift confectioners sugar into a bowl. Whisk in zest and 2 tablespoons juice until smooth. If icing is too thick, add more juice, 1 teaspoon at a time. Dip top of each cupcake into icing, letting excess drip off. Put a carrot curl on top of each and let icing set, about 15 minutes.
CARROT CAKE CUPCAKES WITH ORANGE ICING (FLAT BELLY DIET RECIPE)
These cupcakes are delicious. The orange zest frosting makes them look and taste fancier than just any cupcake. I only had baby carrots on hand and it came out fine so i don't think it makes a huge difference in flavor except that they are a bit sweeter.
