Vegan No-oil Carrot Cake


Preheat the oven at 350F.
____________________________________
ONE
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp cinnamon
____________________________________
TWO
4 egg replacer
1 cup apple sauce (avoid high-fructose corn syrup!)
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract (I use no-alcohol extract)
____________________________________
THREE
8oz crushed pineapple (pour into a colander, but don't press it. It will help the batter stay moist)
3 cups carrots, grated (use the bigger holes)
____________________________________
Lightly grease an 8 or 9 inch round spring-form tin and sprinkle with flour. In a bowl, mix the ingredients in ONE. In a bigger bowl, mix the ingredients in TWO. Pour the dry ingredients gradually into the wet ingredients as you combine them with a wooden spoon. Mix in the ingredients in THREE.
Pour the batter into the prepared tin and bake for 30 minutes, or until brown and firm.
Serve with soy ice-cream or a dollop of fat-free Greek yogurt.

You can freeze it in slices and enjoy later!!!

  1. yum! i love your blog virginia! also, when I move, do you want my left-over egg replacer?

    i don't know how much sugar plays into your diet, but angel food cake only has egg whites, so its super low fat (no oil or butter!) and another low-fat sweet would be meringues, or macaroons if you had a low-fat filling :)
