Ingredients

350g Carrots chopped

This is a really moist carrot cake that’s quick and easy to prepare and goes well with fresh berries. There’s no refined sugar in this cake so it isn’t too sweet, but you can add more dates if you wish. The carrots are full of beta-carotene which has been linked to reduced risk of cardiovascular disease. Beta-carotene is a type of carotenoid which has been shown to give your skin a golden glow similar to a sun tan. Studies have demonstrated that this glow actually makes us appear more attractive. The cake also contains no wheat which is a common food allergen that can cause immune-related digestive problems in many. Enjoy.
