Updated: Dec 10, 2020

Drink your carrot juice and save the pulp! This delicious carrot cake is sugar-free, gluten-free and completely raw. No oven was harmed in the making of this flavorful moist cake-like texture topped with a creamy, tangy frosting.



Cake ingredients: 2 c. Carrot Pulp (from juicing) 16 Dates, pitted 1/4 c water 1 1/4 c walnuts 1 1/4 c pecans 1 tsp. Cinnamon 1/2 tsp ground ginger 1/8 tsp nutmeg (or 2 shakes) 1/4 tsp sea salt 1/4 c. dried coconut or coconut flour 1/4 raisins Instructions:

1. Juice some carrots and save the pulp; you will need 2 cups of pulp. 2. Roughly chop dates once you've removed the pits and place them in a food processor. Add water slowly until a thick paste with some chunks form. Put aside in a large bowl. (you don't have to rinse it out) 3. Add to the food processor the walnuts, pecans, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt until a medium- fine texture is achieved. 4. If your processor is large enough, add the dates, and carrots in to combine; if not, pour it all in a large bowl and combine well. 5. Lastly, fold in the dried coconut/ or coconut flour along with the raisins just until incorporated.

Cream Cheese frosting ingredients: 1 1/2 c raw cashew 1 can full fat coconut milk (refrigerate)use solid cream part only 3 tbsp lemon juice 4 tbsp maple syrup 1/8 tsp cinnamon 1 tsp vanilla Instructions: 1. Soak cashews in hot water for 30 min. then strain. 2. Combine all ingredients in a high speed blender until smooth.

Assembly: 1. Wrap the bottom and sides of your dish with parchment paper.-I used spring form mini cake pans. 2. Put your cake mix in and flatten the tops. 3. Pour your frosting on and spread evenly. 4. Place cakes on a pan in the freezer for 4 hours or overnight. 5. Take out of the freezer 30 min. prior to eating and store leftovers in the refrigerator.


Enjoy!

Hi Beverly, yes.. you can make your own coconut flour. It won't make it any sweeter. I'm sure you will love it!

Hi Sonya, this Beverly from Trinidad. Nicole friend.

Thanks for sharing your cake recipe. Hmmm. ...delicious

Question: Can I make my own cake flour from scratch using dried coconut from my tree?

And would it make cake any sweeter?
