Yield: 1 Servings
 
Ingredients
  2 1/2  c +2 TB whole wheat pastry  
    Flour  
  1 1/2  ts Baking soda  
  1 1/2  ts Cream of tartar  
  1 1/2  ts Cinnamon  
  1/4  ts Ground nutmeg  
  1 1/2  c Honey (I think this could be cut in half)  
  1/3  c Frozen pineapple juice concentrate, defrosted  
  2  ts Vanilla  
  2   Egg whites, unbeaten (or egg replacer to equal)  
  1 1/2  c Grated, peeled carrots  
  2   4 oz. jars carrot baby food puree  
  1  c Raisins  
  2   Egg whites, lightly beaten (or egg replacer to equal)  
 
Instructions
 
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Set aside.

 
  2. In medium bowl, mix honey, juice concentrate, vanilla, unbeaten egg white mixture and carrots. Stir into flour mixture and mix until just blended. Stir in raisins. Gently stir in lightly beaten egg white mixture. Do not over mix!

 
  3. Spoon batter into two 9" round nonstick baking pans. Bake at 325 degrees for 40-45 mins or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool on wire racks for 20-30 mins and remove from pans.

 
  This is a delicious cake! Can be sprinkled with powdered sugar or frosted with melted fruit preserves if you don't have a low fat frosting recipe.
