Healthy, delicious and vegan-friendly! This dessert gives you a little bit of everything, and I mean, in flavor too. After setting the oven to pre-heat at about 350°, add 1 and 1/2 cups of flour, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder, a 1 teaspoon of salt and cinnamon and a quarter teaspoon of nutmeg to one bowl and whisk thoroughly.
In a larger bowl, add a third of a cup of brown sugar and applesauce, 3/4 cup of sugar, a quarter cup unsweetened cow or almond milk, half a cup vegetable oil, 2 teaspoons of grated ginger, and finally half a teaspoon of vanilla extract. Whisk the contents of the bowl and slowly mix in the dry ingredients and 8 ounces of grated carrots, that’s around 3 carrots.
Now you need to coat a pan with non-stick vegetable oil and scrape the batter into it. For best results, coat the pan with oil before you start to prepare the batter.
Once the pan is filled, make sure to smooth out the top and sprinkle about two tablespoons of black sesame seeds on the top. Put the pan into the oven and let it bake for about 75 minutes. You can insert a butter knife or a tester into the center of the cake to check if it's done.
When it finally is, you’ll have yourself a hot and sweet treat!
