It’s easy to make the best carrot cake cupcakes from scratch with this recipe. Real grated carrots make these treats moist and delicious, with the perfect amount of spice. We added chopped pecans for an extra nutty flavor, but you can skip the nuts if you'd prefer. Frosted cupcakes are the best, so don't forget to top them off with our fluffy homemade cream cheese icing. These moist carrot cake cupcakes make a great Easter dessert or bake a batch for an everyday treat.
