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.

THE Best KETO CARROT CAKE RECIPE | How to Make Low Carb Carrot Cake with Real Carrots
HOW TO MAKE KETO CARROT CAKE
Carrot Cake is my second favorite cake when I need a keto dessert. First is white cake and then comes carrot cake. I created this keto carrot cake recipe with cream cheese frosting because I needed to satisfy my occasional craving for keto cake. This low carb cake recipe is moist and full of carrot & spice flavor.
This low carb carrot cake is made using REAL carrots. Don’t be afraid of carrots on the keto diet. They are loaded with fiber and vitamins. Sure, they might have carbs, but this keto carrot cake recipe on uses 1 cup of shredded carrots for the entire cake!
I topped my keto carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. This keto frosting has a little extra bite to it because I add some sour cream. You can also use plain yogurt. My favorite keto yogurt is the plain yogurt from PEAK YOGURT. Each container has 24 g of FAT and 4 g CARBS and is delicious on it’s own. Visit their site here:
Make sure to double the recipe if you love keto cream cheese frosting.

1 ½ c. white granulated sugar
¼ tsp. salt

Cream Cheese Frosting Recipe

½ box or approx. 1 ¾ c. Confectioner’s Sugar
1 Stick (4 oz.) salted butter
1 (8 oz.) package of Philadelphia Brand Neufchatel 1/3 Less Fat Cream Cheese
1 tbl. plus ¼ tsp. of vanilla extract
UPDATE: February 5, 2017: I am continually tweaking this recipe to make it even more healthy. Since I posted this video, I have been able further cut down on the sugar content without compromising the taste or texture. It has been a gradual process for me so I have adjusted to the taste and prefer it very much over the version I created above. If you would like to try it with less sugar than the above recipe then here's the change: Instead of 1 1/2 cups of white granulated sugar, you use 1/2 cup of raw honey and 1/4 cup of white granulated sugar. If you try it this way, let me know what you think!
