Creamy Vegan Carrot Cake

I’m a big fan of carrot cake, however, many carrot cakes I have tried have way too much sugar, unhealthy fats, and almost zero nutrition. So I had to create a better way for all of us to enjoy this treat. You will love this recipe because it is:

  1. Healthier than most carrot cakes recipes I’ve seen.

  2. Oil free, instead using ingredients like flaxseeds, which brings me to the next point.

  3. Ingredients are mostly whole foods, with walnuts, almond flour, carrots, and whole wheat, among others.

  4. It provides enough good energy to use as a pre-workout meal, which I sometimes do!
