I've made this recipe once before but I never put it up on the blog because the result wasn't that good. This time it turned out so much better. I love these! Perfect as a snack. The recipe is from paleomg.com. I used a slightly bigger dish than the recipe so I got 12 slices but they were much thinner and therefore I only cooked them in the oven for about 25 minutes. I also excluded the raisins because I'm not a huge fan.
Ingredients
makes about 8 slices
2 large carrots, finely shredded
160 ml almond butter
2 eggs
3 tbsp honey
35 grams of whey protein powder (vanilla flavoured or unflavoured)
1 tbsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla powder (exclude this if you're using vanilla protein powder)
½ tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
120 ml raisins (optional)
Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius.
Shred the carrots as thin as possible. Add them to a large bowl. Add in the almond butter and eggs and mix well. Then add honey, protein powder, cinnamon, vanilla, baking powder and salt and mix well again. If using raisins, fold them in now. Grease a 20 x 20 cm large baking dish with a bit of coconut oil, pour the cake batter in the dish and place in the oven for about 25-35 minutes (depending on thickness). The top of the cake should have a nice crust to it.
Take it out and let it cool slightly before slicing it up.
