Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup honey
  • ¼ cup butter, room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup oats
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon

Vegetables

  • 2 carrots, shredded

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) to ensure it reaches the desired temperature before baking the cake, helping it cook evenly.
  2. Prepare the Batter: In a bowl, combine all the ingredients except the shredded carrots. Use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. If you don’t have an immersion blender, use a regular blender to achieve a smooth batter consistency.
  3. Mix in Carrots: Gently fold the shredded carrots into the blended batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed without overmixing.
  4. Prepare the Baking Pan: Line a small baking pan, approximately 7×7 inches (18 cm), with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make removal easier.
  5. Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 20-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, indicating the cake is baked through.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely before slicing. Enjoy this wholesome flourless oatmeal carrot cake as a nutritious snack or dessert.

Notes

  • You can substitute the butter with coconut oil for a dairy-free version.
  • Make sure the shredded carrots are well drained to avoid extra moisture in the batter.
  • If you prefer a sweeter cake, feel free to add more honey to taste.
  • Use gluten-free oats if you need the recipe to be gluten-free.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
