[AllergyPossible.com] Carrot Cake for Goodness Sake! [RECIPE]

Carrot cake is a family favorite of ours in my home. It’s the cake that my husband and I shared on our wedding day. So, it was initially a somber day when I had to begin following dietary restrictions due to health issues. I could relate to my daughter’s dismay about imagining life without a sentimental food, due to her severe food allergies.

Never having carrot cake was NOT going to be an acceptable option for me. I was going to have to experiment until I could come up with a safe version of the cake for my family. After lots of trial and error, this is recipe is now a coveted masterpiece, my magnum opus if you will.

Please don’t be alarmed by the pecans in the image and that are also mentioned as “optional” in the recipe. You should NEVER include any ingredient that is not safe for your family. Pecans happen to be one of the only nuts my daughter is not allergic to. We were advised by her medical professional to incorporate the nut(s) that she IS NOT allergic to into her diet, so that it will hopefully prevent her from developing an additional allergy.

Dry Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 C Brown Rice Flour
• 1/4 C Sweet Rice Flour
• 1/2 C Potato Starch
• 1 tsp Baking Powder
• 1 tsp Xanthan gum
• A dash of salt
• 1 TBS Cinnamon
• 4 Dashes of Nutmeg
• 2 Large Carrots Grated
• 1 C Raisins
• OPTIONAL: 1 C Crushed Pecans or Walnuts only if they are safe for your family.

Wet Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 Sticks Avocado Butter (room temperature). Substitute with any butter that is safe for your family.
• 1/2 C Sugar
• 1/2 C Brown Sugar (or Coconut Sugar if that’s safe for your family).
• 1 whole Can of Aquafaba (The liquid from a can of unsalted chickpeas/garbanzo beans).
• 1 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 1 1/2 C Oat Milk

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°

• Mix dry ingredients in a medium to large sized mixing bowl with a spatula.

• In a separate large bowl, mix avocado butter, sugar, aquafaba and vanilla extract with an electric hand mixer for a few minutes (usually 4 minutes).

• Gradually add the dry ingredients into the bowl of wet ingredients and initially begin mixing with spatula. Then, gradually add in oat milk and use hand mixer to finish mixing (which also adds air into the batter.) (Usually 2-4 minutes).

• Now is the time to add the grated carrots, raisins, and OPTIONAL 3/4 C of nuts (only if they are safe for your family), into the batter. I fold it all in with a spatula until it’s evenly mixed.

• Grease 2 glass pie dishes (for a two layered 9″ round cake) or cupcake liners with avocado butter. Pour batter into the two pie dishes (or spoon batter to fill 12 cupcake liners, in a cupcake pan).

• Bake at 350° for 40 minutes. (Oven temperatures vary and using metal pans instead of glass will also affect cooking times. You may want to check the cake/cupcakes sooner, or they may even have to bake longer, depending on your oven.)

• After removing from the oven, allow ample time to completely cool. (Don’t apply frosting until the cake is room temperature.)

• I spread buttercream frosting between the two layers of cake and then I frost the entire exterior.
• OPTIONAL: You can sprinkle the remaining 1/4 C of Pecans or Walnuts onto the top of your cake as a garnish, only if those particular nuts are safe for your family.
• Refrigerate immediately after frosting the cake. This cake is best served chilled.
