Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup organic coconut flour, sifted
  • 3 tbsp organic einkorn flour, sifted
  • 1 1/4 cups grated organic carrots (about 2 large)
  • 1 tsp organic ceylon cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp organic nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp unrefined salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 3 pasture-raised eggs
  • 3/4 cup raw honey or organic maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp pasture-raised butter, melted
  • 226 g pasture-raised cream cheese (one block)
  • 50 g organic maple syrup (for frosting)
  • Extra honey or maple syrup for the top (Optional)

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 350 °F (175 °C).
  2. Mix coconut flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
  3. Whisk eggs, honey or maple syrup, and melted butter in another bowl.
  4. Combine wet and dry. Fold in carrots. When coconut flour has absorbed moisture, mix in einkorn flour.
  5. Line a glass loaf dish with parchment. Pour in batter, tap to settle. Drizzle extra honey or maple on top (optional).
