Eggless Carrot Cake image

This cake is based on a recipe I found on the Internet (at srefoodblog.blogspot.com). I adapted it to fit our taste and found it really delicious. It made giving carrots to my 2-year old a whole lot easier. I frosted it with the standard cream cheese frosting, but it would be good with jam or even by itself.

Time 55m

Yield 8 bars, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 cup wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 tablespoons butter, softened
1 1/2 cups carrots, grated (4 or 5 medium)
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup slivered almonds
1/4 cup raisins
1 teaspoon ginger, freshly grated
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon clove

Steps:

  • Grease a 8" square pan and preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Sift together flour, baking soda and baking powder in large bowl.
  • Add softened butter, yogurt and sugar and mix well. The batter will be quite thick at this point.
  • Add the grated carrots, nuts, raisins, spices and ginger and mix well.
  • If the batter is still too thick, add a little more yogurt to loosen it up.
  • Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake at 350 F for 40 minutes or until the cake is browned and tests done in the middle.
  • Cool and frost if desired.
