  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven and prepare pans: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and line four 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.
  2. Combine dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
  3. Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat eggs, melted coconut oil, applesauce, erythritol, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  5. Add mix-ins: Fold in grated carrots, shredded coconut, and walnuts (if using).
  6. Bake: Divide batter into pans, smooth the tops, and bake for 20–25 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool on wire racks.
  7. Prepare frosting: Beat softened cream cheese and coconut oil until smooth. Add powdered erythritol and vanilla extract, beat until fluffy.
  8. Assemble: Stack and frost each cake layer, then cover sides and top with frosting.
  9. Garnish: Sprinkle toasted shredded coconut on top for garnish.

Notes

  • You can customize the sweetness by adjusting the amount of erythritol or using your preferred sweetener.
  • Feel free to add raisins or pineapple for extra flavor and moisture.
  • Store the cake in the refrigerator due to the cream cheese frosting.
