Carrot Apple Cake Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round or square cake pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- In another bowl, combine the applesauce, honey or maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Add almond milk to adjust the batter's consistency.
- Fold in the grated carrots, diced apples, raisins, and optional nuts.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30–40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
