Healthier Carrot Cake

Healthier Carrot Cake – Less Calories, More Health and Taste

I fell in love with carrot cakes from the first moment I tried one some time ago. But this was still pretty late in my life – I was over 20. I think that the idea of baking a cake with a vegetable was in Poland at least pretty foreign for many years ;-). But my obsession started when I tried an  a m a z i n g  carrot cake while I was in Monterey, California. The cake was incredible: moist, heavy but heavenly!

Since then I was on a search for the perfect recipe. I tried lots of different ones but was never completely satisfied. And then one day I decided to do it my way: healthier (wholemeal flour and addition of apples) and lighter (little sugar and low-fat cream cheese). The result was incredible – my whole family agreed that my Healthier Carrot Cake was the best carrot cake I had ever baked!

P.S. If you don’t have to count calories, cut the baked and cooled down cake into two horizontal parts, double the amount of icing ingredients and use half of it to spread on one half of the cake. Cover with the second half and spread the rest of icing on top of the Healthier Carrot Cake.
