Hemp Seed Oil and Carrot Cake Cupcakes Recipe

Ingredients:

For the Cupcakes:

  • 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1/4 cup 13 Seeds Hemp Seed Oil
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 and 1/2 cups finely grated carrots
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

For the Cream Cheese Frosting:

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Equipment:

  • Cupcake liners
  • Cupcake/muffin tin
  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Tin: Preheat your oven to 175°C and line a cupcake tin with cupcake liners.

  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, beat the eggs, coconut sugar, hemp seed oil, applesauce, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  4. Incorporate Carrots: Stir the grated carrots (and nuts if using) into the wet mixture.

  5. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  6. Fill Cupcake Liners: Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.

  7. Bake: Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

  8. Make the Frosting: Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla, beating until creamy and smooth.

  9. Decorate: Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, frost them with the cream cheese frosting. For a festive touch, you can top them with Easter-themed decorations, such as sugar carrots, sprinkles, or even a small sprig of fresh mint to mimic carrot tops.

These Hemp Seed Oil and Carrot Cake Cupcakes are sure to be a hit at any Easter gathering, offering a delicious and slightly healthier option that still feels indulgent and celebratory.
