Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a medium bowl, mix flour, flax, baking soda, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, mix sugar and pumpkin until creamy.
- Add vanilla, then add applesauce and carrots.
- Mix wet and dry ingredients together and add raisins if using.
- Pour batter in a greased* 9x13 pan or two 9 in cake rounds for a layer cake.
- Bake for 40 - 45 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool adequately if frosting or adding topping**.
- *To grease the pan I use 1-2 tsp of non hydrogenated vegan margarine because it gives the cake a little richness without adding a lot of fat.
- ** For a nice low-fat topping I put crushed pineapple on top.
