Serves: 9x13" pan (you choose!)


Ingredients
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup apple sauce
3 Tbsp ground flax seed and or 3 equivalents of Ener-g egg replacer
3 cup shredded carrot
1 1/2 cup sugar
3 Tbsp black strap molasses
2 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon or pie spice

Step by Step Instructions
  1. Mix all of the wet ingredients and the sugar in a bowl until well mixed. Add the carrots and mix.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix together the dry ingredients. Once both bowls are ready, mix together to form batter.
  3. Pour into a 9 by 13 cake pan. Put into preheated 350 degree oven for about 40 minutes. It is done when a toothpick comes out clean. If you use other sized pans (rounds, for example) be sure to adjust your baking time.
