Watch
I love All Nigerian Recipe but this post is a misnomer now. This is basic carrot cake recipe, where is the fitfam in this? “Fitfam” carrot cake will be possible only when you can find a way to sub the oil and brown sugar out. When I make it, I use part oat flour and part wholemeal, agave syrup and fat free yoghurt but the yoghurt makes it taste really different so my experiment isn’t quite complete as yet.
