My Mom is a fantastic cook and bakes yummy cakes.I learnt this carrot cake using all purpose flour and eggs from her.
But I always wanted to try it using whole wheat flour for my son who is 21 months old. So I tried this Whole wheat Carrot Cake Recipe where in I replaced eggs with baking powder and baking soda as eggs are not allowed at my place.
Just got to try this cake timely before the winters end and the season of yummy juicy carrots gets over.
