Carrot cupcakes with cream

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make carrot cupcakes with cream? Prepare your food. First for the cupcakes. Take refined, odorless vegetable oil. Milk is suitable for any fat content. You can add raisins and any nuts to the cupcake batter, I did not use them. All foods must be warm, so remove them from the refrigerator in advance.

2. STEP 2

   

   Take a bowl and sift the flour into it. It is important to sift the flour to saturate it with oxygen. Then the baked goods will turn out airy and rise well during baking. Add baking powder, vanillin, ground ginger and cinnamon to the flour.

3. STEP 3

   

   Mix dry ingredients.

4. STEP 4

   

   Beat the egg into a separate bowl. Be sure to wash your eggs before using them, as even seemingly clean shells can harbor harmful bacteria. It is best to use food grade detergents and a brush. Start beating it with a mixer, adding sugar in portions. Beat the egg until fluffy and light.

5. STEP 5

   

   Without stopping whisking, pour vegetable oil into the egg mixture. Stir the products until smooth.

6. STEP 6

   

   Pour the liquid mixture into the flour mixture and mix everything with a mixer. The result will be a rather thick crumbly mass. You don’t even need to take a mixer, but mix the products with a spatula.

7. STEP 7

   

   Wash the carrots well, peel and grate on a medium grater.

8. STEP 8

   

   Add carrots to the dough, stir.

9. STEP 9

   

   Pour in the milk and stir the dough until smooth. Now it will become the correct consistency - like thick sour cream. If you are baking cupcakes with raisins and nuts, add them at this stage. First steam the raisins with boiling water and dry them, and lightly dry the nuts in a dry frying pan and chop them.

10. STEP 10

    

    Insert special paper capsules for cupcakes into cupcake molds. Divide the dough into capsules, filling them 2/3 of the volume - the cupcakes will grow greatly during baking.

11. STEP 11

    

    Bake cupcakes in an oven preheated to 180°C for 25-30 minutes. The exact time will depend on the features of your oven. Check readiness with a wooden skewer - it should come out dry from the center. Remove cupcakes from oven and cool.

12. STEP 12

    

    Prepare the cream. Prepare your food. I used mascarpone as the cheese, but any other cream cheese will do. Choose high-quality, natural oil, without vegetable fats. Remove the cheese and butter from the refrigerator in advance to allow them to soften.

13. STEP 13

    

    Place cheese, butter and powder in a bowl. Stir them with a spatula until smooth. I don't use a mixer so the butter doesn't cut off, but you can beat the cream with it. Fill a piping bag with cream and pipe it onto the top of the cupcakes. Or just spread it on top with a knife.

14. STEP 14

    

    You can decorate the top of the cream cap with confectionery sprinkles or carrot shavings. Bon appetit!

The cupcakes turned out very tasty and beautiful. I made a few changes myself. Instead of white sugar, I used brown sugar; it makes the baked goods softer and takes on a beautiful brown tint. In addition to the raisins, I also added walnuts, halved the nuts and raisins. Walnut goes well with the taste of carrots. The cupcakes turned out soft and slightly doughy. You can feel the taste of carrots and nuts, as well as the sweetness of raisins, and notes of cinnamon and ginger. Instead of butter, I added whipped cream to the cream, since I don’t like cream with butter, and a drop of vanilla extract. The cream turned out delicate, with a creamy taste. It goes great with carrot muffins. Delicious. And quite satisfying, the cream is very nutritious. And I decorated the finished cupcakes with marzipan carrots and sprinkled them with coconut shavings. She prepared the marzipan herself, then added dye to it and sculpted carrots. I like to make figures from marzipan, so I used it, and you could also make carrots from cream or use pieces of carrots, as in the recipe. Excellent elegant cupcakes for dessert, thanks for the recipe!
