Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare muffin tins with papers.
- To mix the carrot cake: Grate the carrots using the grater attachment on a food processor.

- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, brown sugar, oil, vanilla extract, and orange zest.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices with a whisk. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture. Add the finely chopped carrots, pineapple, walnuts, and raisins.
- Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full. Bake for about 25 to 30 minutes or until a tester comes out clean. Allow the cupcakes to cool on a rack.
