I’ve made carrot cake before, so I understand the consistency. Is cake was good, but a bit too moist even though I baked it for almost an hour, granted I also baked this in a 9 x 13 pan. I think if I make it again, I will use less applesauce. Additionally, I got the sugar down to about a cup of brown sugar and just a quarter cup of white sugar. I probably could’ve gotten rid of all the white sugar, because it was plenty sweet. I also didn’t have pecans, so I used walnuts and they were fine.

Hi Nancy, we haven’t tested this recipe as cupcakes, but I think it should work! I’d try baking at 400°F for around 15-20 minutes.

Absolutely delicious, moist but not overly sweet. Just right amount of carrots. Sliced well, and cream cheese frosting great too

Hi Elsa, you could use coconut sugar.

Fantastic cake! I did omit the nuts. And I did not have applesauce or crushed pineapple. So I added about 1/3 cup of mayonnaise to help keep the cake moist. Next time, I will make sure that I have applesauce.
