Ingredients

For the cupcakes

1 ½ cups gluten free flour blend

See all
1 ½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp ground ginger
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
¼ tsp salt
2 large eggs
¾ cup granulated sugar
Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Baking behavior varies by blend: some brown faster or stay softer, while others brown less. Follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
½ cup neutral oil (such as canola oil or sunflower oil)
Chef's tip
Avocado oil is neutral and handles high heat, making it a good all-purpose swap.
¼ cup lactose-free plain yogurt
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 cups finely grated carrots (about 3 medium carrots)
½ cup walnuts, roughly chopped (optional)

For the frosting

8 oz cream cheese, softened
¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 ½ cups powdered sugar, sifted
Chef's tip
Follow the package's conversion to powdered sugar. In frosting or glaze, add liquid gradually - replacements can absorb it differently.
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
