4
Combine the wet and dry ingredients until well mixed. Fold in the carrots and the nuts (if using).
5
Divide batter evenly, up to ¾ of the way full.
6
Bake for about ⏱️ 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7
Let cool in the pan for ⏱️ 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
8
Once the cupcakes are completely cool, you can frost them with my cream cheese frosting. I scattered extra toasted pecans over the frosting for a little extra something.
9
Store cupcakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. For longer storage, these cupcakes can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 1 month. Defrost for two hours at room temperature.
