In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mix, cinnamon and ginger. Add the carrots, raisins and walnuts and stir to combine

In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, vanilla and water

Stir the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Make sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl to make sure everything is thoroughly mixed

Divide the batter among the compartments of the prepared cupcake pan
