Vegan Carrot Cake Recipe: Baking Without Added Sugars

March 22, 2021 By Alina Petre, MSc. RD. 5 Comments

Vegan carrot cake

Vegan carrot cake is a family-favorite in my household. So, when my daughter’s first birthday rolled around, it was almost a given that I’d try to bake her a sugar-free variant.

The problem was that, at the time, I couldn’t find any good sugar-free cake recipe online.

I found several vegan carrot cake recipes advertised as being “sugar-free” or “without added-sugars.” Yet, upon reading the recipe, I’d inevitably find out that they simply used maple syrup, coconut sugar, or raw sugar instead of white sugar.

High protein vegan meals or recipes are often hard to come by. 

I’m not sure whether this is because vegans consider protein to be an over-hyped nutrient. Or because they believe that as long as a vegan diet provides enough calories, it will automatically also provide enough protein.  

Regardless of the cause, the result remains the same. Despite it being an important nutrient, plant protein is one I often seek lacking in vegan recipes.
