I made these for my friend's baby shower, then again a week later because everyone loved them. I usually substitute wheat flour, but in this case I didn't have to substitute any ingredients and they were wonderful. My friends & family now all have this recipe and I'm sure it will be continued to be passed around.

Okay, yeah, these aren't as good as full fat, high calorie carrot cake. But they are darn good and I will be making them again and again. I'd call them Carrot Cake Muffins, so people know what to expect- they are not as sweet as dessert carrot cake. I love the lemon zest on the icing. I would consider the icing as optional because the carrot cake muffins are good as is. I might add in some golden raisins or pineapple next time.

These cupcakes were very delicious! the cupcakes themselves are very moist and the cream cheese frotsing is also very good. They are also very light. I found that the recipe didn't make enough frosting, so I ended up doubling it. Also, I toasted some shredded coconut and put that on top as well.

I didn't have applesauce but had a bag of Trader Joe's mango chunks which I pureed in place of the apple sauce. The result was excellent.

I made these for my daughters preschool class snack and they were wonderful! Moist and perfect without the frosting and all that much better with. I'm on the WW diet and these are only 2 points without the frosting and 5 with. I haven't tried a bad recipe from Ellie Krieger yet! Looks like I'm going to have to get her cookbook. :-

I love carrot cake especially with cream cheese icing. I decided to leave the icing off to reduce fat and sugar. I am very happy I did. These cupcakes are fantastic without the guilt. I added shredded coconut and ground flax seed. I recommend anyone who likes carrot cake to use this recipe from now on. I know I will!
