In reply to Lynda. egg size can play a role in recipes. Too large perhaps? Or not cooked long enough.

Just made it. It was far too moist.
It reminded me of moist bread pudding.
I didn’t have the stevia so I used a tablespoon of Erythritol and also added a few chopped walnuts. Everything else was as per the recipe. What do you think I did wrong?

This recipe was fantastic! Using what I had on hand so 2 TBS coconut flour + 1 TBS almond flour and about 2 TBS Anthony’s Erythritol. Added a little vanilla extract, too. It was the perfect texture and the perfect taste.

Maybe just use 1/4 tsp and add more cinnamon. Another extract I’m loving is maple extract which might also give this cake a wonderful warmth to it.http://amzn.to/2E4Jx6n

Love carrot cake but the cinnamon liquid was too strong and bitter. How much less could I
use and still have the cinnamon flavor? Cathy

In reply to Sharon. Net carbs are the carb amount after the fiber has been subtracted from the total carb count.

Why is carb at 10.8g and net carb 3.4 g? What is the difference?22

In reply to Kaylyn. You really can't just sub any of those for the coconut flour here, the liquid is the tricky part with coconut flour. I would say to look at another of my mug recipes that use almond flour. I have a tiramisu one, just maybe sub it for the carrot cake ingredients.

I tried to leave a comment a few days ago, but I’m not sure if it went through. This looks great! Just wondering if I can sub almond flour or something else for the coconut flour? I don’t have any coconut flour, but since I have almond flour, flax meal, and a low carb baking mix, I didn’t want to have to buy another ingredient to try this cake. Thanks!

This was so fantastic – used unsweetened almond milk instead of the cream to save on calories and fat and used 2 Tbs. of Swerve as I didn’t have cinnamon stevia. Thank you so much for the recipe – it’s a keeper!
