Gluten-Free Carrot Cake

Low carb, sugar-free, and keto carrot cake. This is a crowd-pleaser and delicious. You can make it as fancy as I have or simply turn it into a simple cake. The hardest part of the grating the carrots but the rest is a piece of cake.

Let the cake cool after you remove it form the oven for about 15 minutes before you add frosting or decoration.

Without the frosting, it’s a little bit dry. That’s why a perfect companion is a piece of cake with some frosting and a hot cup of coffee, tea. Did anyone say dessert for breakfast? This is a perfect cake for a special occasion. I made this with love for our wedding anniversary!

Hi! I’m Ruby

Sometimes I tweak traditional recipes, and sometimes, I get bit by the creative bug and whip up new and unique ones. I’ve had the opportunity to try various cultural dishes from the quarters of France to the mountains of Iceland, to the islands of Greece to the food trucks of New York City. They’re all full of flavor, and I like to create healthier versions of these dishes while keeping the flavor intact. Enjoy these oh, so delicious recipes!
