How To make Reduced Fat Carrot Cake
--------------------------REDUCED-FAT CARROT CAKE-------------------------- 1/4 c Walnuts
2 1/2 c Sifted cake flour
2 ts Cinnamon
2 ts Baking powder
1 1/2 ts Bakeing soda
1 ts Salt
2 lg Eggs
2 lg Egg whites
2 c Sugar
1 c Prune puree (see below)
1/2 c Vegetable oil
2 c Grated carrots (5-6 small)
8 oz Crushed pineapple, (8 oz)
- thoroughly drained Frosting (see below)
FROSTING:
12 oz Low-fat cream cheese,
- softened 1/2 c Confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 ts Pure vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat inside of three 9-inch round layer-cake pans with non-stick cooking spray. Line the bottoms with wax paper and set aside. Spread walnuts in a pie plate and bake for 8 to 10 minutes at 350 degrees, or until fragrant. Let cool; chop coarsely. Toasting the walnuts brings out their nutty flavor, and means you don't need to use as many as in traditional recipes. In a medium-sized bowl, stir together flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and egg whites. Add sugar, prune puree and oil and whisk until smooth. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until blended. Stir in carrots, pineapple and the toasted walnuts. Divide the batter among the prepared pans and bake for 30 to 35 minutes at 350 degrees, or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool for 5 minutes in the pan on a rack. Loosen edges and invert cakes onto racks. Peel off paper and let cool completely. TO MAKE PRUNE PUREE: In a food processor, combine 6 ounces (1 cup) pitted prunes with 6 tablespoons hot water; process until smooth. Makes 1 cup. One cup of prune puree contains 407 calories and 1 gram of fat; a cup of butter contains 1,600 calories and 182 grams of fat; and a cup of oil contains 1,944 calories and 218 grams of fat. FROSTING In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar and vanilla; beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. TO ASSEMBLE CAKE: Place 1 cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a scant 1/2 cup of frosting over it. Top with another cake layer and spread
another scant 1/2 cup frosting. Place third layer on top and spread with remaining frosting. Serves 16. Calories: 310 per serving; Protein: 6 grams; Fat: 10 grams; Carbohydrate: 52 grams; Sodium: 392 milligrams; Cholesterol: 34 milligrams.

Ingredients:
2 eggs
140 g dark muscovado sugar
Zest of one orange
140 g mixed fruit
280 g finely grated, peeled carrots
100 g self-raising flour
130 g plain wholemeal flour
1 tsp baking powder, plus a pinch
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp orange juice
200 g cream cheese
200 g creme fraiche
3 tbsp icing sugar
Vanilla extract
40 g crushed walnuts
Step 1: Prepare the Mix
Separate two eggs, and place the yolks and whites in two separate bowls. Then whisk the egg white until light and frothy and put it to the side.
Add the muscovado sugar and the oil to the bowl with the egg yolks. Mix it until smooth. Add orange zest and mixed fruits. Mix it again. Add grated carrots, then salt. Sift flour in, stir gently. Mix together the baking soda, bicarbonate of soda and 1 tsp cinnamon and sift it into the bowl. After that stir vigorously.
Prepare a greased and flour dusted baking tray. Gently fold the egg white with a metal or wooden spoon in. Try to keep the fluffiness of the egg white.
Pour the mix into the pan. Smooth it over with the spoon. Put it into the pre-heated oven at 180°C for 40-45 minutes.
Step 2: Make the Frosting
While the cake cools down, start with the frosting. Add orange juice to cream cheese and crème fraiche. Also add the vanilla extract. Icing sugar follows with a pinch of cinnamon. Mix it.
Frost the cake with the icing and decorate with chopped walnuts.
