Carrot Cake w/ Juicing Fiber
Make this delicious, moist cake using three full cups of the vegetable fiber left over from juicing carrots or a combination! I always use a lot of carrots along with green apples and many other green vegetables when I juice and that seems to be enough carrot leftovers to call this carrot cake. If you don’t use carrots you may need to rename the cake. I also enjoyed this very much one time with just chopped almonds, cinnamon and sugar sprinkled over the top instead of frosting.
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Grease and flour an 8″ round or square baking pan.
- Mix together carrot fiber, eggs, honey, sugar, olive oil, and pineapple juice in mixing bowl until well blended.
- Sprinkle dry ingredients over top: flour, salt, cinnamon, baking powder (and additional walnuts if desired); mix just until blended. Pour into pan and bake 40 min. Frosting:
- Blend cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth. Spread on cooled cake. Additional Flavor: Add 1 tsp. nutmeg and/or allspice for wonderful flavor. Add a few tablespoons more sugar or 10 drops of liquid stevia for sweeter cake, but try it the first time with just the sweet frosting! OTL 2012
