Simple Vegan Carrot Cake Recipe

Assalamu Alaikum everyone!
It's Hanifah here. Today I'm going to show you how to make this easy vegan carrot cake. I am interested in vegan baking and have been doing some experimenting with a few of our family's favourite recipes. This one was a success, alhamdulillah, and so I thought I'd share it.

Ingredients:-
2 ¼ cups self-raising flour
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup cane sugar
1 cup oats milk
½ cup coconut oil
½ cup unsweetened applesauce(I made my own)
½ tsp vanilla extract
2 cups grated carrots

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk the sugar, oats milk, coconut oil, applesauce and vanilla. If you are making your own applesauce it would be best to make it ahead of time.
3. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
4. Then fold in the grated carrots. Be sure not to over-stir the mixture.
5. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius, 350 degrees Fahrenheit, Gas Mark 4.
6. Bake on the middle shelf for 35-40 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
7. Allow the cake to cool for a bit before transferring to a wire rack.
8. Store in the fridge. It is nice served warm or cold.
Enjoy!
See you next Friday, insha'Allah.

Wassalam,

Hanifah
