Background

This healthy carrot cake has no gluten, dairy or fat added to it - yet it's moist and absolutely delicious! Most importantly you can mix the batter together in no time, then the oven does the baking. I made my own oatmeal by blending rolled oats into a mixture resembling fine breadcrumbs. Then I blended in a couple of handful of walnuts - which was enough for this recipe.

Ingredients

2 medium carrots
1 cup oatmeal (gluten-free)
½ cup rolled oats (gluten-free)
½ cup ground walnuts
1 tsp cinnamon powder
2 tsp baking powder
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla paste or extract
½ cup apple juice
1 to 3 Tbsp Stevia/Xylitol/coconut sugar
4 Tbsp coconut cream
½ cup dried fruits (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 170°C.
Mix the oatmeal, oats, ground walnuts, cinnamon, baking powder in a large bowl.
In another bowl mix the eggs, apple juice, vanilla, coconut cream and the natural sweetener of your choice.
Pour the wet liquid into the dry - mix well. Add the dried fruits if using.
Transfer the mixture into a lined and lightly greased cake tin, spread it out evenly.
Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, until golden and an inserted skewer comes out clean. Let it cool in the tin for 5 minutes then transfer it to a wire rack.
