Carrot Cake Dairy Free Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Oil and line the base and sides of an 18cm square cake tin with baking parchment.
• Tip the sugar, sunflower oil and eggs into a big mixing bowl. Lightly mix with a wooden spoon. Stir in the carrots, raisins and orange zest.
• Sift the flour, bicarbonate of soda, cinnamon and nutmeg into the bowl. Mix everything together, the mixture will be soft and almost runny.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 40-45 mins or until it feels firm and springy when you press it in the centre.
• Cool in the tin for 5 mins, then turn it out, peel off the paper and cool on a wire rack. (You can freeze the cake at this point if you want to serve it at a later date.)
• Beat the icing sugar and orange juice in a small bowl until smooth - you want the icing about as runny as single cream. Put the cake on a serving plate and boldly drizzle the icing back and forth in diagonal lines over the top, letting it drip down the sides.

Steps:

• Blend all ingredients and mix very well.
• Pour into greased and floured 9 inch baking pan.
• Bake for 25- 30 minutes at 350.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, add the cashews and enough hot water to cover them. Let soak for at least 1 hour.
• Rinse and drain the cashews, then add them to a food processor or blender. Add the coconut cream, powdered sugar, maple syrup, coconut oil, lemon juice, vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar, and salt. Blend until completely smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary.
• Transfer the cashew frosting to a bowl and refrigerate while you bake the cake.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease 3 separate 8-inch (20 cm) round cake pans and set aside.
• In a large bowl, add the flour, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk to combine.
• In a separate large bowl, add the almond milk, coconut oil, applesauce, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar. Whisk to combine.
• In two batches, add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, folding with a spatula until combined. Some clumps are okay.
• Add the grated carrots and raisins and fold them in.
• Divide the batter evenly between the 3 pre-greased cake pans and bake for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.
• Remove the cashew frosting from the fridge and mix it up well.
• Choose which cake will be your bottom layer and cover evenly with about ⅓ of the cashew frosting. Top with the second layer, frosting evenly again. Add the final layer and frost the top of the cake generously
• Grate a carrot over the top of the frosting and sprinkle with chopped walnuts for garnish.
• Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Enjoy!
