Gluten Free Carrot Cake
We just love this carrot cake. Feel free to play around with it, if you have a particular recipie you really like adapt it to be gluten free.
2 cups flour
(we really like the gluten - free Featherlite Rice Flour All Purpose Bake Mix, others have their favorite, whatever you like best will work just fine. depending on what flour you use you may want to add 1/4 cup more flour than what is called for just to compensate. Either way it wont make much of a difference. I acctuall used 2 1/4 cups of this featherlite flour)
2 cups Sugar
2 tsp. Soda
2 tsp. Cinnamon
1 tsp. Salt
1 1/2 cups oil
(I usually substitute half of the oil for applesauce, all that matters is that you have a total of 1.5 cups of oil and applesauce combined)
4 Eggs
3 cups Grated Carrots
Nuts (if desired)
Mix the dry ingredient; add oil and stir well. Add eggs, one at a time, then add carrots. Bake aat 350 degrees for 50 minutes in a 9x13 inch pan.
Frosting for Carrot Cake
(This is my favorite frosting, if you have one you like better use it)
1 (8 oz.) cream cheese
1 cube butter or margarine softened
1 tsp. vanilla
Powdered Sugar (add enough powdered sugar untill you get the right consistance. Start with 1.5 cups and add more as needed)
1 cup of nuts (optional)
After the cake has cooled completely spread the frosting and enjoy!!!
