Tastey Gluten Free Carrot Cake


Im writing this blog on a major sugar high, after having devoured the last of the cream cheese icing from my delectable Carrot Cake.

Want the Ingredients? Then Read On

Cake
3 Eggs
1 Cup Oil

1 Cup Sugar
1 1/3 Baking Soda
1 3/4 Cups of Gluten Free Self Raising Flour
1/4 Cup Chopped Walnuts
1/4 Cup Plump Died Apricots
2 Cups of Grated Carrot
1 1/2 Teaspoons of Cinnamon

Icing
125G Cream Cheese (or until the right consistency)
1 Cup Icing Sugar
2 Dessert Spoons of Soft Butter
Lemon Juice
Grated Lemon Rind (optional)

Instructions
Beat Eggs, Sugar and Oil Well. Add Dry Ingredients. Blend Together. Add Carrots, walnuts, apricots. Place Great Proof Paper in the bottom of a tin. Cook on 180 degrees C for 35-45 mins.

Beat together the ingredients with a little lemon juice, and grate in a little lemon rind. I served mine with a few almonds, coconut, and apricots... It tasted amazing, (although i could not eat much after my feat on icing) and My Gluten loving flatmates thought it tasted allright, which is saying something!

Happy Baking and Remeber Enjoy... And Always Lick The Spoon
