Here's a tasty vegan carrot cake recipe. If you've followed my previous recipes, you will know that I am a big fan of carrot cake recipe that are easy and delightful, and the one I am about to share with you isn't an exception to that rule. This is a vegan recipe, as I mentioned, meaning that it does not contain any animal products.
Some vegans attempt to make sure that all edible foods are absent of animal content. Many people will go to great lengths to find this information. Not long ago I watched a documentary that highlighted animal products in food products that we would normally imagine are utterly animal product free. Products like jelly beans and marshmallows (gelatin), mustard (eggs), shortbread (shortening) and even some breakfast cereals. This recipe, however, is 100% free from all animal products hence it's perfect for vegans.
The ingredients you will need are as follows:
- One cup soy milk
- Two cups grated carrots
- 3 cups flour
- Two (2) cups water
- One cup sugar
- Half (1/2) teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 1/2 cups raisins
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- One and a half (1 1/2) teaspoons allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon cloves
Preparation instructions for this cake recipe:
1. First, make sure that your oven is pre-heated to 350F (or will be when you've finished preparing everything - about ten (10) minutes).
2. In a pan, mix together the water, raisins, carrots and spices. Bring to boiling point then simmer for eight (8) minutes. Add the salt and sugar and continue to simmer for two (2) minutes more. Now mix in the remaining ingredients.
3. Turn off the stove and continue to stir the mixture continuously as it cools down.
4. In a large mixer bowl, blend the flour with the bicarbonate of soda and the carrot and raisin mixture. Fold these ingredients together.
5. Pour the batter in a lightly greased baking pan and place in the oven uncovered for approximately fifty minutes. Keep a watch on it after a half hour as all ovens do vary a bit. When it's done, poke the center of the cake with a skewer and if no batter sticks to the skewer, remove the pan from the oven and allow it to cool for ten minutes.
That's all it takes to make a mouth-watering vegan carrot cake recipe at home! I bet you thought it would be more complicated didn't you? Let me know what you thought of it!
