This is a simple recipe to make gluten-free, super delicious carrot cake at home. It took me about two hours to bake this cake, one hour for preparation and one hour for baking.

Step 1: Ingrdients


The following are the ingredients I have used. I have checked twice to make sure all these ingredients are gluten-free.

  • 175 grams of fully ripe Bananas. You will get about 150 grams of fruit after peeling the skin
  • 150 grams of fresh Carrots
  • Three Eggs
  • 100 grams of Dates
  • 100 grams of Cashew Nuts
  • 100 grams of home-made butter
  • 50 grams of Tutti fruity (made from raw papaya)
  • Two teaspoons of Baking powder. I have used Double-acting baking powder.
  • One teaspoon Salt
  • Half a teaspoon of Spice Powder for flavoring (ground mixer of Cinnamon, Star Anise, Cloves and Cardamom)
  • 175 grams of Corn flour

Step 2: Preparation-1

  • Clean and grate the carrots
  • Peel and puree the Bananas
  • Finely chop the dates
  • Grate the Cashew nuts

  • Add Butter in a large mixing bowl
  • Add three eggs and beat well with the butter
  • Add grated carrots, pureed bananas. chopped dates, grated cashew nuts & tutti fruity and mix well
The fruit mix is ready

Step 3: Preparation-2

  • Mix together Corn flour, salt, baking powder and spice powder separately
  • Sift this mix through a fine sieve so that all ingredients get mixed well together
  • Add the flour mix to the earlier prepared fruit mix
  • Blend everything together
