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!
