Gluten-free carrot cake with yoghurt frosting
American 20 Mins Prep · 60 Mins Cook
- Preheat the oven to 180°C, gas mark 4. Grease and line a 20cm spring-form cake tin.
- In a food processor, pulse the carrots, apple and pecans until finely chopped. Add the remaining cake ingredients except the raisins; pulse until fully combined. Then pulse in the raisins.
- Smooth into the prepared pan. Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour, until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out mostly clean and the top is dry to the touch.
- Cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the cake, unhinge the pan and transfer to a cooling rack. Cool completely.
- For the frosting, cream the butter until light and fluffy – for approximately 8 minutes. Add the cream cheese and icing sugar and whip until light.
- Fold in the yoghurt, refrigerate until firm enough to spread over the cake.
