This is the perfect cake to bring to the holiday party that will be enjoyed by most! This is a guilt-free cake that is light but deliciously flavorful at the same time. You can add in your own favorite nuts or raisins if you would like. Carrots are naturally sweet, so the cake does not need much added for sweetness. This cake is rich in fiber, protein, healthy fats, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Bon Appétit!

2 cups almond flour
¼ cup coconut flour

Mix the two together. If you are adding raisins or nut add at this time. About ½ cup of one or the other or both.

Hi Dr. V – your icing calls for 1 1/2 cup of coconut cream but then I read “from full fat coconut milk”. Do you mean 1 can of full fat coco milk or 1 1/2 c of the actual cream that sits on the top of the can? If the latter, we’d need to use 3 or 4 cans of the coco milk.
Thank you, Lori
It will be 1 can of coconut cream. It says coconut cream on the can.
Thank you, makes sense. Sometimes I over-think things! Lori
