Happy Friday, y’all! weekend is finally here and it’s a great time to treat yourself right! I’ve been a fan of carrot cakes since the first time I tried it and I always wanted to learn and bake a perfect one myself. as we try to avoid eggs and milk in this house I had to find a solution to make it moist and tasty without them. it actually turned out pretty well, so I decided to share a recipe with you guys.

what you’ll need:

• 3 tsp of cinnamon
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1/2 cup vegan margarine, softened
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 1/4 cups flour
• 1 cup grated carrots
• 1 tsp nutmeg powder
• 1 orange (zest and juices)

how to prepare:

• the preparation is actually pretty easy. I never follow any step by step tutorials, so basically you just have to mix sugar and margarine together, zest and squeeze the orange and keep adding all other ingredients until well mixed.
• preheat oven to 180°C
• spread some vegan margarine evenly in baking pan before pouring the batter into it.
• bake for around 45 mins.
• allow to cool before eating. you can also make some frosting to go on top. some ideas here and here.

and this is it, folks, you’re good to go!

enjoy and have a great weekend!

I’ll talk to you soon.
