The combination of carrot cake and cupcakes is a match made in heaven. Carrot cake cupcakes are not only delicious, but they’re also much easier to make than the traditional cake. You can whip up a batch of carrot cake cupcakes in a fraction of the time it takes to bake a full-size cake. Plus, they’re much easier to eat and share with family and friends. Here’s a recipe for the best carrot cake cupcakes you’ll ever taste.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup grated carrots
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a cupcake pan with paper liners and set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar, oil and eggs. Add buttermilk and vanilla extract and whisk until combined.

Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in grated carrots and walnuts (if using).

Divide batter evenly into cupcake liners, filling them about ⅔ full. Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Allow cupcakes to cool completely.

Top cupcakes with your favorite cream cheese frosting and enjoy!
