I love carrot cakes a lot. I have three recipes for carrot cake in this blog. But many of my viewers asked me to share a eggless version of it. One fine day, it was tea time and i was craving something sweet with my glass of tea. So i decided to try a carrot cake with my very own recipe.
Similar Recipes,
I bought a silicone mini bundt muffin tray recently and i wanted to bake something in them. So decided to try my own version of carrot cake, i made this using wheat flour, flax seed powder, oil, i even added some oats in it to make it very healthy. It turned out beautiful and loved it to the core.
Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
