My (almost) vegan Carrot Cake
Ingredients:
350 gr 🥕 🥕 🥕
250 gr almond flour
50 gr rice flour
75 gr pecans, roasted and crunched
Baking powder
4 eggs
100 gr vegan butter at room temperature, I used Violife vioblok
A pinch of salt
And you can used either cardamom, ginger or vanilla essence to your liking for extraÂ
level of flavour
For the filling:
400 gr vegan cheese spread, I used Violife alternative
200 gr whipping cream, I used Alpro
100 gr confectioners sugar
Extra pecans for the decoration
Directions:
Preheat the oven at 170 Celsius.
Finely grate the carrots and set aside.
Whisk the sugar with the butter, add the eggs one at a time. Combine the flours, baking powder and essence. Add the carrots and lastly the pecans.
Pour it in a pre greased and dusted cake tin (18 cm diameter) and bake in the oven for about an hour, it’s a pretty wet cake so check that it’s baked properly with a stick before turning the oven off. Let it cool completely, it will take an hour.
When completely cooled, slice in three.
With a whisker, beat the cheese spread with the sugar. Beat the whipping cream to soft peaks and add it to the cheese spread mixture.
Spread over the layers and decorate with pecans!
