Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners, or coat with non-stick spray.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar substitute, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the applesauce, egg whites, vanilla extract, and crushed pineapple until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the shredded carrots until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Evenly divide the batter among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
While the cupcakes cool, prepare the frosting by whisking together the fat-free cream cheese and powdered sugar substitute until smooth and creamy.
Once the cupcakes are fully cooled, spread or pipe the cream cheese frosting on top of each cupcake.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
