Sweet Sunday Afternoon

This rainy,windy, cold weather didn't give me other option for the afternoon, so I decided to make my favourite cake today. This is the perfect time for carrot cake!:) I tried to make the healthiest version of it now, so here I present the recipe for you in order to bake your homey, warm and delightful sweet.

Suzy's carrot cake

dry ingredients
180 gr of whole grain spelled flour
2 teaspoon of bio baking powder
3 teaspoon of cinnamon powder
pinch of salt for balance

liquid ingredients
3 eggs
3/4 cup of brown sugar (cup=200ml)
100 ml of coconut oil

5 middle sized rasped carrots

topping:
200 gr mascarpone cheese with agave syrup 
almond flakes

Put the oven for 180 degrees. First mixed well the dry ingredients. Secondly mix the liquid ingredients as well. Mix together dry and liquid adding the liquid slowly to it. At the end you add the rasped carrots. Be careful with mixing, you have to be fast because the baking powder start to react very fast. If you are hesitating with mixing and you are not on time you risk the cake to stay down and to break on top while baking. The cake needs approximately 30-40 minutes to be ready it really depends on your oven. To check the cake if it s ready or not you can use a thin knife, just put it into the cake and if the dough doesn't stay on it it is perfectly ready!
The cake needs to cool down a bit to put the topping on it. Slush the cream on the cake gently and after scatter the almond flakes on top!
Serve it with a cup of coffee, hot chocolate or vanilla chai as I do!

Enjooooy!!!
