Description

This juicy, gluten-free carrot cake is a real eye-catcher on any coffee table! I especially like baking it because it becomes so nice and fluffy and gets a great sweetness from the frosting. The carrots make the cake incredibly juicy and the walnuts provide a pleasant bite. Thanks to the vegan egg substitute, it is also suitable for allergy sufferers. The preparation is super easy and quick with the Thermomix®. Perfect for birthdays, brunch or just for enjoying! An absolute must for all cake lovers.
