Ingredients

12 servings

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/3 cups grated carrots
  • 1 1/3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 2 sticks salted butter, at room temperature
  • 3 cups powdered sugar

  • 1/4 cup warm milk

Steps

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Line cupcake molds with paper liners.2. In a large bowl, beat together the coconut oil, brown sugar, eggs, yogurt, and vanilla. Mix in the carrots. Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, and salt. Mix until just combined.3. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared pan. Bake 25-30 minutes, until the tops are just set, and no longer wiggly in the center. Remove and let cool.4. To make the frosting. In a stand mixer, beat together the cream cheese until whipped. Add the butter and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the powdered sugar, salt, and vanilla. Beat until the frosting is light and fluffy, then slowly stream in the milk until your desired consistency is reached, you may not use it all.5. Frost each cupcake and decorate as desired. I love to dust the cupcakes with matcha powder, strawberry powder, and/or edible flowers.
