Recipe
Carrot Pistachio cupcakes
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour

1 1/2 cups sugar

1/2 cup dark brown sugar

1 tablespoon baking soda

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

1 teaspoon fresh-grated nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon allspice

3 cups grated carrots
1 1/2 cups chopped dried apricots

1 1/2 cups chopped pistachios

4 large organic eggs

1 1/2 cups olive oil

1/2 cup organic milk

2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
1. Make the batter: Heat oven to 350°F. Butter two 8-inch round cake pans and line an 8-cup muffin pan and set aside. Combine the flour, sugars, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice in a large bowl. Toss the carrots, apricots, and nuts in the flour mixture and set aside. Whisk together the eggs, olive oil, milk, and vanilla in a medium bowl and add to the flour mixture. Stir until just combined. Transfer 3 cups of batter to each cake pan and 1/4 cup batter to each cupcake liner. Bake the cakes until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean - about 40 minutes for cakes and 20 minutes for cupcakes. Cool cakes in the pans on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Release cakes from pans and cool completely on the rack.
