Vegan Carrot Muffins/Cupcakes for Easter!
I had a request for this recipe when I mentioned it elsewhere so here it is - from "The Farm Vegetarian Cookbook"
Your oven goes to 350 first Mix in one bowl: 1 C oil (not olive) 2 C sugar - can be half brown/half white or all brown, I suppose you could use succanat, I can't ever afford it so I never have 1 and 1/2 C milk alternative or can use water in a pinch In your second bowl, sift together: 4 C flour (I have used whole wheat PASTRY flour or plain white if your family doesn't dig whole wheat) 2 tsp baking powder 2 tsp baking soda 1 tsp salt 1 ans 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/2 tsp allspice Combine both bowls, then add to THAT (you will need a pretty big bowl by the time you're done) 3 C grated carrots (raw, duh) 1 C nuts (which the cookbook says are optional, but I think it would be kinda dense and boring without them) 1/2 C raisins (ditto the above) Cookbook says this makes 3 round layer cakes, baked at 350 for 35-40 min, but when I did it that way they were too done on the outside before the middle set, so that's why I started doing it in muffin pans - jumbo muffin pans work really well, at 350 for 20? 25? min? (Sorry, timing is always "iffy" for me as I have never had a properly working oven :/) These are soooo yum...fatty and sugary yes, but sooooo yum...

Re: Vegan Carrot Muffins/Cupcakes for Easter!
I've made this carrot cake. The Farm cookbook is one of my favorites! What a nice idea making it as muffins or cupcakes for Easter!
