Carrot Protein Cake
written on
This carrot protein cake is a spin on my Banana Double Chocolate Protein Cake and my Strawberry Banana Layered Delight. This is my healthy version of a carrot cake - it not only has vegetables, but it also has tons of protein!
Preheat the oven to 335 degrees. Put all the cake ingredients, except the shredded carrots into a high speed blender and mix until smooth. Then add the shredded carrots and hand mix. You could also add chopped walnuts or raisins. Pour into a pan that is lightly greased with coconut oil. Bake for 30-35 minutes.
Blend all the icing ingredients in a blender until smooth, and add as much as you wish to the cake.
Store the protein cake in the fridge.
