Sugar Free Carrot Cake Recipe

Step 1

Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch springform cake tin with cooking spray and line with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix the carrots, almond flour, desiccated coconut, walnuts or pecans, cranberries, ground cinnamon, baking powder, ground ginger, ground green cardamom, nutmeg, and salt.

Step 3

In another bowl, add in the eggs, honey, milk, coconut oil, applesauce, and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine.

Step 4

Add the dry mixture into your wet mixture until evenly combined

Step 5

Transfer the cake batter to your cake tin. Bake it in the oven for roughly 45 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean.

Step 6

Once your cake is done baking, remove it from the pan and allow it cool on a rack.

Step 7

In a chilled mixing bowl beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form.

Step 8

In a separate bowl, add in the cream cheese, honey, and vanilla extract. Cream until smooth, roughly 5 minutes.

Step 9

Fold in the whipped cream to your cream cheese mixture until evenly incorporated.

Step 10

Spread your cream cheese frosting over your cooled cake.

Step 11

Stick roughly 4 pieces of toothpicks into the cake and place your cling film on top. This will prevent the cling film from sticking to your frosting.

Step 12

Cover your carrot cake and chill until the frosting becomes firm. Enjoy your sugar-free carrot cake at room temperature or served chilled.
