THM Carrot Cake

(To read the explanation of the THM eating plan see my post on 1-9-18)
Here's another dessert (carb) that is on plan.


Carrot Cake           E                                                  8 servings 
1 3/4 cups oat flour
2 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp.ginger
1/4 tsp salt
1/3 cup stevia
1 cup grated carrot
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup egg whites
1/3 cup water
1 Tbl. lemon juice

Mix dry ingredients. Mix wet ingredients. Add together and blend well. Bake in a sprayed round cake pan at 350 degrees for 19 minutes. Cool in pan and then cool some more on a rack. Add frosting. Keep the cake in the refrigerator. Dividing the cake into 8 slices keeps the fat at 2.25 grams per serving.

Frosting
3 oz. reduced fat cream cheese
1 Tbl unsweetened almond milk
3 packets of stevia
Dash of vanilla.
