Hey there!
I decided to update the pictures to some of my recipes and I started with this gluten-free carrot crumble slice. If you want to read the blogpost I wrote back the here you go: the original carrot slice post. By the way I also slightly adjusted the ingredients, e.g. I added 20g more raisins, so no major changes.

Recipe type: Dessert
Cuisine: plantbased
Serves: 9
Ingredients
- 2 carrots (mine weighed 130g)
- 50g almond meal
- 50g buckwheat flour
- 90g agave (can be substituted with maple syrup or honey)
- 30g almond butter
- 50g raisins
- 100ml almond milk
- ½ tsp vanilla paste
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 1tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp ground cloves
- a pinch of nut meg
- 30g coconut oil (preferably slightly softened)
- 30g millet flakes (if you haven’t got millet flakes you can use oats, if necessary gluten-free ones)
- 30g chopped almonds
- 30g coconut sugar (can be substituted with ordinary sugar or cane sugar)
- ½ tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C
- Finely grate your carrots.
- Into a mixing bowl add the grated carrots, buckwheat flour, almond meal, agave, cinnamon, baking powder, ground cloves, nut meg and almond butter also pour in the almond milk.
- Mix your batter until well combined..
- Pour into a square shaped (approx. 20cmx20cm) lined baking tin.
- For the crumble add coconut oil, millet flakes, chopped almonds, coconut sugar and cinnamon into a bowl and crumble it up with your fingers until all the ingredients are well combined. It shouldn’t quite form a dough but the mixture should be slightly sticky.
- Evenly crumble the millet almond mixture over the cake batter. Now bake at 180 °C for 20 minutes or until a toothpick stuck into the middle comes out clean.
- After 20 minutes remove it from the oven, let it cool down completely and then slice your cake into squares. I went for fairly big slices so I got 9 out of this amount of cake though you could totally make your slices a bit smaller.

Hi! Can I use grated apples instead of carrots?
Hey! Well you could definitely try it, it will, however, completely change the flavour and it definitely won’t be a carrot cake anymore. But sure just give it a go:)
Dear Fanny, mu son is intolereant to baking powder at the moment. Could I replace it with baking soda.? Thanks
Dear Daniela, I am actually not sure as I have never used baking soda as it is not very common in Switzerland. However, you could definitely give it a go.
