HOW TO MAKE KETO CARROT CAKE

Carrot Cake is my second favorite cake when I need a keto dessert. First is white cake and then comes carrot cake. I created this keto carrot cake recipe with cream cheese frosting because I needed to satisfy my occasional craving for keto cake. This low carb cake recipe is moist and full of carrot & spice flavor.

This low carb carrot cake is made using REAL carrots. Don’t be afraid of carrots on the keto diet. They are loaded with fiber and vitamins. Sure, they might have carbs, but this keto carrot cake recipe on uses 1 cup of shredded carrots for the entire cake!

I topped my keto carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. This keto frosting has a little extra bite to it because I add some sour cream. You can also use plain yogurt. My favorite keto yogurt is the plain yogurt from PEAK YOGURT. Each container has 24 g of FAT and 4 g CARBS and is delicious on it’s own.
