Instructions: 

  • Preheat oven to 350F
  • In a bowl mix together the flour, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and orange zest. Set the bowl aside.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the oat milk, Hellmann’s Vegan mayonnaise, grated carrots, and applesauce.
  • Now combine both the dry and wet ingredients together. Be careful not to over work the batter.
  • Once smooth, spoon batter into pre prepared mini muffin tins. Once all of the muffin molds are filled, place trays into the oven and bake for 15-17 minutes. Remove from the oven when you can poke the muffin with a toothpick, and it comes out clean. Place muffins on cooling rack to cool completely.
  • While the muffins are baking, add the vegan butter, vegan cream cheese, icing sugar, and oat milk to a bowl. Using a hand mixer, beat the mixture until smooth. Option to place icing into a piping bag affixed with a star tip.
  • Once muffins are cooled, pipe on vegan cream cheese icing and enjoy!
  • An additional fun tip, add orange zest to some sugar to create orange sugar to sprinkle on top of the icing for colour.
