This tasty treat was my first successful attempt at baking light. The ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg give it a familiar spice cake flavor...and raisins and shredded carrots help keep it moist. Hilary Carroll of Dearborn, Michigan Ingredients:
2 cups king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour |
1-1/4 cups packed brown sugar |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger |
2 eggs |
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1-1/2 cups shredded carrots |
1 cup raisins |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. Combine the eggs, applesauce and vanilla; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in the carrots and raisins (batter will be thick).
2. Spread evenly in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Yield: 15 servings.
