Best 2 Gluten Free Carob Cake Recipes

CAROB & COCONUT 'GLUTEN-FREE VEGAN' CAKE, WITHOUT REFINED SUGAR

Steps:

• An hour or two before making the cake soak the topping ingredients. Chop the dates and place in a pan with the cashew and coconut cream. If the coconut cream has thickened (which happens if it gets too cold), then melt it gently in the pan until it's runny (should take less than a minute). The idea is that the cashew and dates absorb the cream to make them softer and blendable later.
• Mix all dry ingredients together in a mixing bowl.
• Melt the coconut oil and then mix all wet ingredients together in a jug.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix together thoroughly before sharing evenly between two parchment lined cake tins.
• Place in a preheated oven at gas mark 5 (375°F/190°C) and bake for approximately 25 minutes or so (bear in mind that every oven seems to have a mind of its own). Allow to cool before adding the icing.
• Blend the topping ingredients together with a blender and when the cake has cooled down, sandwich them together with a good dollop of the creamy icing and then spread the remaining icing to cover the whole cake. You can decorate the cake with dessicated coconut and a bit of grated carob bar.

EASY GLUTEN-FREE CARROT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
• Beat white sugar and vegetable oil together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; beat in eggs, 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract and mix.
• Combine baking flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a separate bowl; mix into sugar-vegetable oil until batter is smooth. Fold carrots into the batter; pour into the prepared baking pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Allow cake to cool completely, at least 30 minutes.
• Beat cream cheese and butter together in a bowl using an electric mixer; beat in confectioners' sugar, a little at a time, until icing is smooth and creamy. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and beat well. Spread icing onto cake.
