Carrot Cupcakes


This cupcake recipe was adapted from the carrot cake recipe I posted earlier. I added some oat flour to add some more nutrition. They turned out really yummy!

mix the following:

3 eggs
3/4 cup buttermilk
3/4 cup oil
1, 1/2 cup sugar
2 t vanilla

then add the following:

2 t cinnamon
1/8 t nutmeg
1/4 t salt
2 cups flour (1/4 cup of this is oat flour)
2 t baking soda

then add the following:

2 1/2 cup shredded carrots
1 cup coconut
1 cup chopped walnuts
8 oz crush pineapple with juice

bake at 350 in a greased and floured pan for 45 minutes.

Cream Cheese Frosting

cream:
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup butter

add:

1 tsp orange extract
2 cups powder sugar

Fill muffin sleeves two thirds full. Bake at 350 for about 25 minutes. Test by pressing your finger on the muffin top. You want it to bounch back.
