One of my favorite types of cake is carrot cake, but I try to not make cake too much because 1. It takes a while to make and 2. I never end up eating it all. So what better way to enjoy it then in cupcake form and have it 10x healthier than your traditional carrot cake!

When I was little I was obsessed with strawberry shortcake…and I still am. It is not a typical breakfast food, but when you makeshift it into a stack of pancakes, well I am all over it.

So I have a quick backstory to this recipe. I recently posted a recipe for a Pear Blueberry Galette. My original plan for that recipe was to create a super healthy gluten-free crust…well that obviously didn’t work out very well due to me using whole wheat flour in that recipe, which DID turn out.
The results for that healthy gluten-free dough I intended to use? Super crumbly and dry…about fell apart in my hands. Now I could have tested it over again and combined different kinds of flours to aid its texture, but if I am going to be honest, I didn’t really want to and I like my gluten.
However, I didn’t let that crumbly dough go to waste. I added a few ingredients to boost its moisture, a touch of sweetness, and ta-da! I created this cookie recipe. Let me tell you…It is addicting. I think my family went through the whole batch in a couple days…or maybe just one. …

I recently went grocery shopping and found these huge Lumaconi pasta shells and knew right away that I had to create a delicious recipe with them!
