Carrot Cake

[trg_recipe template=”recipe” img_src=”media_lib” imgwidth=”500″ imgheight=”333″ imgcrop=”true” img_align=”center” summary=”Years ago, I worked at one of the local shopping malls. As manager of the store, you had to step up and do what needed to be done, and that often meant 12 hours days and missing out on regular coffee and lunch breaks. The one indulgence I allowed myself back then, was to sneak away every now and then, in a slow customer moment, (when I had a full staff on hand). It was always to the quiet little coffee shop, where I would seek out a few quiet moments alone, and my special treat. A coffee and a single decadent carrot cake covered with cream cheese frosting.
One little bite of this cheese cake takes me right back there. That moment of calm indulgence, just for me. Absolute perfection in one bite.

I hope it takes you somewhere special too!” method_heading=”Directions” other_notes=”” recipe_cuisine=”” recipe_cuisine_other=”Canadian, East Coast” recipe_category=”” tags_schema_only=”true” cooking_method=”baking” prep_time=”15″ cook_time=”70″ ing_heading=”Ingredients” ingredients=”%5B%7B%22title%22%3A%22For%20the%20cake%22%2C%22list%22%3A%226%20large%20eggs%5Cn3%2F4%20cup%20coconut%20milk%20or%2035%25%20whipping%20cream%5Cn3%2F4%20cup%20Shredded%20Coconut%5Cn6%20oz.%20carrot%2C%20shredded%5Cn1%2F%2F4%20cup%20EVOO%20or%20Avocado%20oil%5Cn1%20cup%20Almond%20Flour%5Cn1%2F2%20cup%20Coconut%20Flour%5Cn1%2F2%20cup%20Swerve%5Cn1%20tablespoon%20psyllium%20husk%20powder%5Cn2%20teaspoons%20baking%20soda%5Cn1%2F2%20teaspoon%20cream%20if%20tartar%5Cn1%2F2%20teaspoon%20salt%5Cn2%20teaspoons%20ground%20cinnamon%5Cn1%20teaspoon%20ground%20ginger%5Cn1%2F4%20tsp%20nutmeg%5Cn1%2F2%20teaspoon%20cardamom%5Cn2%20ounces%20walnuts%2C%20chopped%5Cn1%20tsp%20vanilla%22%7D%2C%7B%22title%22%3A%22For%20the%20Cream%20Cheese%20Icing%22%2C%22list%22%3A%2212%20ounces%20regular%20cream%20cheese%2C%20softened%5Cn1%2F4%20butter%2C%20softened%5Cn1%2F4%20cup%2035%20%25%20cream%5Cn1%2F2%20cup%20confectioners%20swerve%5Cn1%20tsp%20vanilla%22%7D%5D” nutri_heading=”Nutrition & Macro Information” extra_notes=”**We STRONGLY suggest you calculate your own macros, based on the brands you use and any alterations you make to the recipe.

We provide a nutrition snapshot in our books, but you MUST know that we are just painting a scenario of how your macros CAN look if you follow the recipe to a tee, use the exact serving sizes and branded ingredients that we use.

Because it is almost impossible to achieve this, we recommend that you calculate your own macros, based on the brands/ingredients that you use, your yield and how much you consume.

*NEVER blindly trust your keto or your macros to an app, a person, a website or a product.” suitable_for_diet=”” suitable_for_diet_other=”Keto, Low Carb, Banting, Healthy, Heart Healthy” custom_nutrients=”%5B%7B%22level%22%3A%220%22%2C%22text_style%22%3A%22normal%22%7D%5D” hide_name=”true” hide_date=”true” hide_author=”true” social_heading=”Share this recipe” social_buttons=”” social_sticky=”true” img_lib=”688″][trg_recipe_method]
