"Toast your nuts"... Pop them into oven on a little sheet tray... 10 minutes and your nuts will be golden and fragrant had me in stitches......... I love you Preppy Kitchen xxx
Hi I tried this recipe the other day and it turned out SO GOOD!!! I changed the spices a little bit, I did 1/4 tsp ginger,1/4 tsp nutmeg, and 1/4 tsp cinnamon. For the cream cheese frosting mine turned out pretty liquidy so I put it in the fridge and then it was fine. I would definitely recommend this recipe for anyone!!! ( I am under 11 years old and it was really easy!!!)
from my experience, over whipping cream cheese makes it soupy, so best to cream sugar and butter until light and fluffy, and then add the room temp cream cheese and mix for only a minute or less, until combined. Works every time!
Thanks for this! I am making these for my Grandfather who has brain cancer and will pass away within the next few months. I'm sure he will love these; he has been craving carrot cake lately. Thanks for contributing to making his final moments more enjoyable whether you realized it or not.
As a teen, I'd leave butter out on the counter before baking and while I'm away my dad would get mad that someone left the butter out and put it back in the fridge.
Hi! I volunteer for a weekly Senior Lunch. I made these this week for dessert. Our regular baker moved. Everyone made all kinds of sounds while eating these today. Thanks so much. I'm learning lots for your videos and will keep you posted on what I make next and my Seniors (Edlers) reaction.
Just sent a message to my friend as I told him you're my inspiration and my hero! Baked bread successfully this past weekend. So happy you've taught me to bake.
I just made these, and let me tell you, they were incredibly soft and moist and had no oil whatsoever! The taste was incredible as well! My whole family enjoyed it and gave many compliments, and wanted me to make more!
I love his recipes they are soo good. and he makes them look simple. every time i use his recipes, they are all a the rave... tastes home made; this particular one is hands DOWN the BEST
I just made these cupcakes and I will forever use this recipe whenever I need to make carrot cake again because it had everything it wasn’t oily it had balanced sweetness it was simple and easy to make. thank you for your recipes I’ll be making the lemon cupcakes once my batch of carrot cupcakes are done.
Being locked up In This pandemic has been horrible to say the least. I just want to say I absolutely love your videos and it has released a lot of the stay at home stress for me and my son. He’s 9 and now we bond over recreating your Recipies! Thank you so much! We really appreciate you and everything you do!
Same. My son asks what treats qe will make next. Couldn't have paid for the time I've had with him. He just turned 13 and he still "likes" me so I'm winning.

Where have you been all my life !!?😭 I love cooking and baking and usually I’d watch videos and they’re so serious and don’t explain too well. BUT YOU ? God, this was so valuable!! Such a good energy and great explaining with the measurements and techniques!! Thank you so much!! Carrot cake is my favorite cake and I’ve been looking for the perfect recipe just how my grandma used to make it. Trying this rn !!
Oh my goodness I made these, followed your instructions exactly, and they turned out AMAZING! I did fill them with caramel too. I did one with walnuts and brown sugar cream cheese frosting, and one with pecans and regular frosting, and then I made little marshmallow fondant carrots to put on top! They are so moist and flavorful!
I just made these for the first time, not knowing if I would create a disaster in the kitchen, but to my surprise, it came out perfect Easy to put together once you have everything in front of you. . I cannot believe how soft, light, fluffy, and moist these cupcakes are. Your not kidding when you said the sour cream and apple sauce would add moisture to this. Also surprised snce no butter is in this thing. Absolutely love it. I would be making more of these instead of muffins. Since this was my first time, I did not go for the frosting part, but will next time, and I did not use the cupcake cups. I like how they brown on the sides without the cupcake cup. Great job demonstrating and making it look easy.
I made these with paleo flour and I have to say they tasted amazing. I have never added cardamom and allspice usually just cinnamon, ginger, ginger. That made all the difference it added a warmth and took the spice cake to an entirely new level. Awesome :)
John. Thank you for the fantastic recipe. My husband is a huge fan of carrot cupcakes and he loves your recipe. Me too, of course! You present your recipes with class and elegance which is always delightful.
"let me tighten my apron for this one.." you're just the cutest, and most relatable! you know the baking's gettin' good, and things are getting serious when you tighten that knot! 😹 great video, as always!
OMG! These are amazing. Thanks for the recipe. I omitted the brown sugar and used only about 93g of raw cane turbinado sugar. It worked well for us. Also, I didn't have any all spice, but I added 1/4 tsp of ground clove and about 1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper. We all love it.
How much confectioners sugar did you put? I’m confused because what is said and what is written are different. Also, did you add the Apple sauce? Don’t suppose you know a substitute? 😬
Wow; I had never thought of "sandwiching" a cupcake with a mound of frosting on top. I usually avoid them because of so much frosting. I will give that a try!
Made these yesterday. I used baby carrots that were cooked. It turned out great. Today I made the blueberry crumble. It’s in the oven. Can’t wait. Also, I like how you pace yourself. Easy & delicious.
Same. Luckily I knew that about this TH-camr and I was in the car while my husband was in the store and I was able to call him. The only thing I didn't have was applesauce and sour cream. But yes if you use this TH-camr just know that the videos don't match the online recipe website
Hello John, love your site, if I may request for persimmon bread and cookies recipe, that would be awesome! More power to you and God Bless! Thank you in advance!
I made these yesterday following the recipe on your website (so no sour cream or apple sauce) and they came out amaaaazing! So moist so flavorful, you never let me down!
I'm so excited for this, can you make different macaron cookies too? Like lemon, pistachio, blueberry, cherry , all the berries, cookies and cream Please and thank you I really enjoy your vids and recipes
brin freit I TRIED HIS PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE RECIPE AND IT WAS A HIT 💁🏼♀️ IN MY HOUSE 😌 I SUBSCRIBED TO HIM 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 cant believe i just found him but THANK GOODNESS FOR THAT
I just made this recipe and kitchen smells amazing. Haven’t try them yet, FYI the recipe amounts on the link call for 3/4 cups of vegetable oil. I’m glad I was watching the video at the same time and caught the error before I mixed my dried ingredients. Made the wet ingredients again with just 1/3 cup of vegetable oil + sour cream + apple sauce. Can’t wait to try them 😍 thank you 🙏🏽
Peter Boullata I love cardamom too and now and then would pop a few seeds as a mouth freshener. Although not sure if John would be able to grate the pod?
Wonderful, love your recipes, and your passion for food is inspiring 💖 i use nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon with my carrot cake, it works really well with the flavours
A-MAY-zing!! I can’t wait to make them! Gotta run to the store to get carrots or they’ll just be cake cupcakes! 😉😆 I’ve never added cardamom to my cupcakes before, so it’s new to me. I really like freshly grated nutmeg in my bakes.
I made the cupcakes and they were delicious! These are the best I've ever made. They were moist and very tasty. I shared with others and everyone agreed that they were delicious! Thank you for sharing!
hi i loveeee your videos, i would highly recommend adding cloves to your batter ;) it’s really good. you’re an inspiration and make quarantine a little less boring!
Love your vibe so much! You’re the reason I got into baking! I’ve used a few of your recipes! I wanted to know if you can make a video on Tres Leches Cupcakes 🧁
It warms my heart when you’re using sour cream! I’m Russian and sour cream is a pillar of our cuisine - it’s a bit sad that’s it’s rarely used in Europe and US. Sour cream is delicious! You can just whip it with sugar and get a delicious cream!
I love this recipe and want to make it this week, BUT...the recipe at your link is different than in the video! There's more oil and less applesauce on your website, and the spices are different. Help!
I really love watching you make desserts. I'm a vegan and I take your recipes and tweak them to be vegan. Can you make a few vegan desserts if you don't mind? I would appreciate it. I'm sure you'll put a lot of love into them just as you do your other desserts.
Thanks for showing us how to eat cupcakes 🧁 in a right way!! Never thought of eating it like a sandwich lol I always scraped the icing/buttercream coz it’s too sweet but this way you can actually enjoy it by eating it like a sandwich 🧁!! Win win 😊
absolutely divine! i used buttermilk in place of the sour cream. my frosting came out very stiff, so i loosened it with 1/4 cup heavy cream. tasty as heck!
Omg thank you so much! This is absolutely perfect timing! I love ALL your recipes they are AMAZING and always turn out super delicious!🤤 I've been doing a lot of quarantine baking and this is my GO TO channel when I have any of my last minute sugar fixes! I recently made your banana muffins and strawberry cupcakes and they were both AWESOME and barely lasted a day in my house😂 So excited to try this out! Also You missed nutmeg!
This is too creepy, every time I think of doing a recipe either you do it a week in advance or i do it right before you 😂 this is going on for weeks now, I had to write something. Anyway, was thinking of trying to make carrot cake muffins, thank you for the recipe. Definitely gonna try them out 😇
I just made these cupcakes for my MIL’s birthday and they were a hit! I got comments on how moist and soft they are. I used the applesauce & sourcream method, and actually puréed the shredded carrots with some more apple sauce in the food processor because I made the mistake of shredding it through the large holes first and needed to break them down more. This is the only carrot cake cupcake recipe you’ll ever need!
I had a small can of chestnut purée lying around so I added that; about 30ml. I also added ground cloves; just because I felt like it. Thanks for all your videos.
It is just me or is it sooooo satisfying that almost everything in your kitchen is copper
That's how I feel!

Yes love the copper kitchen too 😍

@@amanmuhammad14 Thank you very much. Unfortunately he passed away August of 2020. But I appreciate your kind words.
Did you know there is music frequency for cancer?
As a teen, I'd leave butter out on the counter before baking and while I'm away my dad would get mad that someone left the butter out and put it back in the fridge.
hahahaha that happened to me few days ago
That happened to me twice this week 😂
So relatable!!!
I left eggs and butter out and my dad thought the eggs were hard boiled... 🤭 oops
I have a bowl I’ve labeled “baking purposes” so that they don’t touch it .
This man has some grace I just love especially when he makes that chuckle🙏💝
Aww thank you!
It is an evil laugh.

Love the swirl nothing better than the frosting with cake. Love your cooking tips. ❤
We made these tonight and to say they were amazing is an understatement. Absolutely incredible! Thank you for sharing your talent.
I did this recipe twice it's so great. I did add 1/2 tsp of all spices to give it a more of a spice taste and it came out delicious. 😊

Yes, we have bought another into the cupcake fold!
Your kitchen is not meant for messing. I love how you make this recipe. I will try this on a weekend.
I love pineapple in carrot cake! 🍍 My mom has made it that way for years. She also pours a glaze over the cake instead of using frosting.

Your a receipe of easy to follow, creative, pleasantness, funny and perfection. My new favorite baking chef.
Me: John, I can't keep making your lemon desserts. I'm gaining too much weight!
John: Make carrot cupcakes
Me: Ok.
thewandchoseme 😭😭😂😂😂
I made the cupcakes and they were delicious! These are the best I've ever made. They were moist and very tasty. I shared with others and everyone agreed that they were delicious! Thank you for sharing!
Yes John, im torn too!!
Looks so good!! But im outta carrots, so im gonna do pumpkin pecan cupcakes!!
Sounds great! Love those flavors.
I love carrot cake, I need to have someone make these for my birthday in a few weeks
hi i loveeee your videos, i would highly recommend adding cloves to your batter ;) it’s really good. you’re an inspiration and make quarantine a little less boring!
I'll have to try that!
Carrot cake is in my top 5 favourite list. I vote for carrot decorations on top. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
Love your vibe so much! You’re the reason I got into baking! I’ve used a few of your recipes! I wanted to know if you can make a video on Tres Leches Cupcakes 🧁
It warms my heart when you’re using sour cream! I’m Russian and sour cream is a pillar of our cuisine - it’s a bit sad that’s it’s rarely used in Europe and US. Sour cream is delicious! You can just whip it with sugar and get a delicious cream!
Can you teach us how to make a White Chocolate Cake? 🍰
i love this guy. every recipe i've tried from his has worked out deliciously
I wish John could be my neighbor brunch would be SPECTACULAR 🥺😂
My mom loves your lemon cupcake recipe and coconut cookies recipe very much. Your video is soooo satisfying
I love this recipe and want to make it this week, BUT...the recipe at your link is different than in the video! There's more oil and less applesauce on your website, and the spices are different. Help!
Id go with the video myself. Hes done that before where the recipes vary slightly…
You are my rebound for my endless tiring days.. my good night pill to all the yummy cakes!!!
I really love watching you make desserts. I'm a vegan and I take your recipes and tweak them to be vegan. Can you make a few vegan desserts if you don't mind? I would appreciate it. I'm sure you'll put a lot of love into them just as you do your other desserts.
This recipe is AWESOME. I used the same cream cheese to make my carrots on top. I had a great morning making these.
"It's always a plus to toast your nuts."
OK JOHN.
LoL
Like good for breakfast teatime very good nice. Thank you. Every day 2 or 3 times I watch I never miss your recipe it's come very good. Thanks.
Thanks for showing us how to eat cupcakes 🧁 in a right way!! Never thought of eating it like a sandwich lol I always scraped the icing/buttercream coz it’s too sweet but this way you can actually enjoy it by eating it like a sandwich 🧁!! Win win 😊
absolutely divine! i used buttermilk in place of the sour cream. my frosting came out very stiff, so i loosened it with 1/4 cup heavy cream. tasty as heck!
Omg thank you so much! This is absolutely perfect timing! I love ALL your recipes they are AMAZING and always turn out super delicious!🤤 I've been doing a lot of quarantine baking and this is my GO TO channel when I have any of my last minute sugar fixes! I recently made your banana muffins and strawberry cupcakes and they were both AWESOME and barely lasted a day in my house😂 So excited to try this out! Also You missed nutmeg!
I tried it two times....and every time it baked and tasted aweeeesome. Thank you for this recipe 🙏🏼
This is too creepy, every time I think of doing a recipe either you do it a week in advance or i do it right before you 😂 this is going on for weeks now, I had to write something. Anyway, was thinking of trying to make carrot cake muffins, thank you for the recipe. Definitely gonna try them out 😇
We are on the same wavelength!
SO IT'S NOT JUST ME
I just made these cupcakes for my MIL’s birthday and they were a hit! I got comments on how moist and soft they are. I used the applesauce & sourcream method, and actually puréed the shredded carrots with some more apple sauce in the food processor because I made the mistake of shredding it through the large holes first and needed to break them down more. This is the only carrot cake cupcake recipe you’ll ever need!
I m confused as to which recipe to follow , your video or the written one. As written one has no apple sauce and sour cream.
I just made them yesterday and they were soooo good. Also had some left for today, and they were still so moist and tender. Thanks John!
him: i love applesauce
also him: shh dont tell anybody
me: IM PRETTY SURE U JUST TOLD OVER 830k PPL ON THE NET 🥴🥶
😂
I don't like applesauce much, but I use it as an egg substitute in baking since I'm vegetarian :p
n n omg thats so cool i didnt know it was great for substituting eggs ive heard of chia and flax seeds but never apple sauce
@@PreppyKitchen I love applesauce
Everytime I look up a specific thing to make and your recipe pops up, I'm like yup that's the one!
Honestly, I’ve got scars on my knuckles from all the scraping. Sometimes I tell my children that there’s blood in the food (we’re vegetarians)...
Hahah!!
LOLOLOLOL
That is the best! lol
I had a small can of chestnut purée lying around so I added that; about 30ml. I also added ground cloves; just because I felt like it. Thanks for all your videos.
Just an FYI: I think you accidentally put 1 3/4 pounds of confectioners sugar instead of cups in your video and on your recipe!
The pots in the background make a gorgeous backdrop 😘
I like the one with the carrots on top, its just so cute like that !
Wow... I usually prefer to watch videos without talking.. but it is therapeutic to watch ur happy talk ❤
lovely,adding apple sce and soured cream makes a diffence,thanks for showing us this,id say there the best carrot cakes ive made
Love watching and baking. These recipes are wonderful and my family loves them. Thank you for sharing.
