Best Healthy Carrot Cake Ever (vegan, gluten-free)

0 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8×8 square pan with parchment paper or grease the pan.
1 In a large bowl make the flax egg by combining the ground flaxseed and water. Mix and set aside for 5 minutes to thicken.
2 In a medium bowl, add the oat flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk until well combined.
3 In the bowl with the flax egg, add the applesauce, oil, milk, vanilla, and coconut sugar. Whisk until well combined.
4 Add dry ingredients to the wet. Use a rubber spatula and mix until just combined (don’t overmix!). Fold in the carrots and walnuts. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 35-38 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then lift cake out with parchment paper and place on a cooling rack to cool completely.
5 Once cake is cooled, frost with your favorite cream cheese frosting. Slice and enjoy! Keep leftovers in the fridge. It tastes even better the next day too!
