Carrot Cake Recipe Review

made the Carrot cake recipe from BE using Natures Sweet and Almond flour. 

Its very very good.  (not just like the sugary version but that is ok because its still sooo good).

Nice mild sweetness and a light texture.  Moist not dry and not dense.  did not put any topping on it... just the cake. 

Sounds awesome - want to share the recipe? =)

I'm going to bake a sugar free chocolate cake this week - do you recommend the almond flour over regular wheat flour? If I can steer clear of the refined carbs of regular flour, I would like to. Any adjustments needed for the change?

what i have observed is that usually all flour is not taken out with recipes usually see 1/2 of the 'real' stuff and 1/2 almond.    I am by no means an expert .  :-)

recipe can be found at this link

Thanks!!!  Husband's birthday is tomorrow - might try and work something up that would sound good to him. 

You may want to try CarbQuik as a subsitute for flour, its low carb and has protein in it.
