Anleitungen

carrot cake

  •   Preheat oven to 180° Celsius.
  •   Peel and grate the carrots. I did it with an electric food processor, but it also works by hand.
  •   Mix the ground flaxseeds with water and let it soak (about 5-10 minutes).
  •   Melt the coconut oil in a pan. Grease the baking tin (20x20x5cm) with a little bit of melted coconut oil.
  •   Put all the liquid ingredients (up to and including grated carrots) in a bowl and mix.
  •   Mix the dry ingredients (up to and including xylitol) in another bowl.
  •   Step by step add the dry ingredients to the liquid ones and stir continuously. Pour the cake mixture into the baking tray and smooth down.
  •   Bake in the oven for 40 to 50 minutes (middle rack). Make sure to test with a wooden stick beforehand. No cake mixture should stick to the wooden stick. Allow the cake to cool and then carefully lift it out of the mould.

frosting

  •   Juice a lemon.
  •   Put the cream cheese, lemon juice and icing sugar in a bowl and mix well with a food processor.
  •   Use a scraper to spread Frosting over the cooled carrot cake.
  •   Cut the cake into slices (approx. 10 pieces).

decoration

  •   Peel the carrot and cut into strips with a peeler. Use kitchen scissors to cut the strips into small pieces and place them on top of the frosting. Alternatively, use vegan marzipan carrots.
