1

Prepare the carrots

Start by peeling and shredding 2 cups of carrots. Make sure they are finely shredded as this will give your cake a moist texture and vibrant orange color.

2

Mix the dry ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of almond flour, 1 cup of shredded coconut, 1 cup of chopped walnuts, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt. Mix well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.

3

Blend the wet ingredients

In a blender, combine 1 cup of pitted dates, 1/4 cup of coconut oil, 1/4 cup of maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.

4

Combine dry and wet ingredients

Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix everything together using a spatula or your hands until well combined. The batter should be sticky and hold together.

5

Shape and refrigerate

Line a cake pan with parchment paper. Transfer the cake batter into the pan and press it down firmly to create an even layer. Place the pan in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 2 hours or until firm.

Frost and decorate

Once the cake is firm, remove it from the pan and place it on a serving plate. You can frost it with a vegan cream cheese frosting or simply dust it with powdered cinnamon. Get creative with your decorations!
