  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease 3 small (4-inch) springform pans or cake pans.
  • If using old fashioned oats, blend the oats in a blender or food processor to create flour.

  • Add the grated carrot, oat flour, baking powder, and cinnamon to the bowl and combine well.
  • Pour the batter into the greased cake pans.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Remove the cakes from the pans and place them on a wire rack to cool to room temperature.

  • Slice and serve.

Notes

Nutrition information was calculated on a serving being 1/4 of one frosted cake layer (12 servings).
For peanut butter frosting, either just use unsweetened creamy peanut butter or mix ¼ cup of peanut butter with ¼ cup of Greek yogurt.
Unfrosted cake can be stored at room temperature. Frosted cake must be refrigerated. The cake will last up to 5 days. For longer storage, you can freeze the cake for up to 3 months.
