Day 75- Recipe Friday: Carrot Cake

 I have been wanting to try this......

Carrot Cake Deluxe


  It’s a special occasion.  Wearing a party hat without getting any cake makes you feel deprived.  You don’t want to be the only person in the room not enjoying cake.  That’s where this recipe comes in…
  • 12 egg whites
  • 1¼ cup Splenda
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1½ cups oats
  • 1 lb carrots peeled and pureed
  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar,optional

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Peel and puree (very fine) carrots and set aside.  Beat egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks are formed.  Gradually beat in Splenda, almond extract, and pumpkin spice.  Slowly mix in pureed carrots and oats until well blended.  Pour into a nonstick 9x9 pan and bake for 40-45 minutes until toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Cool and cut into 6 equal pieces and enjoy!
