An easy vegan carrot cake recipe with half applesauce, to reduce the amount of fat. This carrot cake still has some vegan margarine, so it's not completely fat-free or low-fat, but it's still delicious!
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup applesauce
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 cup vegan margarine, softened
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 1/4 cups flour
- 1/4 cup soy milk
- 1 cup grated carrots (use a food processor)
- 1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Preparation:
Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees and lightly grease and flour a 9-inch square baking pan.
