Healthy Vegetarian Carrot Snack Cake image

A truly healthy snack cake! This makes a large panful - cut into squares it keeps well in the fridge in a sealed container for a few days and makes a light but satisfying snack, or breakfast, or picnic munchie. This recipe comes from an Indian cooking website, the name of which I have lost. If you recognize this recipe and know who invented it, please let me know!

Time 1h

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups carrots, grated
1 cup nuts, chopped, pecans if possible
1/2 cup coconut flakes, dry unsweetened
1/2 cup raisins
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground aniseed
2 big bananas, ripe and mashed and beaten until fluffy
1/2 cup peanut oil
1/2 cup brown sugar, loosely packed

Steps:

  • Turn on the oven, set to 350.
  • Mix flour, carrots, nuts, coconut, raisins and baking soda in a big bowl.
  • Mix anise, bananas, oil and brown sugar in a smaller bowl.
  • Add wet ingredient mixture to dry ingredient mixture, and stir gently but thoroughly. Add some milk, a bit at a time, if the batter is too thick to stir comfortably (it should be thick, though, not runny!).
  • Pour into large buttered cake pan.
  • Bake 35-40 minutes, until toothpick or knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Allow to cool in pan, and cut into squares. Refrigerate if you want it to last longer. Enjoy!
