This moist vegan carrot cake is perfection! The recipe is easy, uses healthier ingredients, and is topped with vegan cream cheese frosting.
Preheat the oven to 375
In a large mixing bowl, mix the carrots, oat or almond milk, melted butter, coconut sugar, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar. Add in the baking soda, baking powder, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Finally, mix in the oat flour and the all purpose flour. Pour the batter into a 9x5 loaf pan and bake for 40-50 minutes or until golden.
While the loaf is baking, use an electric hand mixer to mix the vegan cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar. Set aside.
Allow the loaf to cool and spread it with vegan cream cheese icing! Enjoy!

Posted on: September 18, 2020Hello, I’ve been wanting to make this but where I live we don’t have coconut sugar or vegan butter… do you have suitable alternatives?

Posted on: September 18, 2020Hi Malak, any sugar will work as a swap for the coconut sugar and you can substitute oil for the vegan butter.

Posted on: September 18, 2020Hello Jillian!
We are moving out of the country in a few months, so I going throught ingredients and we finished our maple syrup.
Can I use extra sugar or dilute some sugar to have the same amount as for Maple syrup?
Thanks for your recipes,
Angela Hansen.

Posted on: September 18, 2020Hi there, I’m thinking this recipe should turn out great with some extra sugar rather than maple! If you notice that the batter is overly thick, you can always add a splash more non dairy milk.
