Vegan Carrot and Walnut Cake with Cream Cheese frosting

Instructions for Walnut Carrot Cake:

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease and line a baking tray (size 24x34cm).
2. Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg powder into a mixing bowl.
3. Add the grated carrots and the light brown sugar.
4. Mix the flaxseed meal with water and allow to sit for at least one minute.
5. In the meantime, add the vegetable oil, vanilla extract, chopped walnuts and apple cider vinegar to the mixing bowl.
6. Add the flax seed mix and mix everything together in the mixing bowl. Have a little patience and let the batter sit for at least 1-2 minutes so that the carrots can release more water into the batter to enable you to mix it all together.
7. Transfer the cake batter evenly into the prepared cake pan tin.
8. Place into the oven and bake the cake for at least 30 minutes. To make sure it is cooked, take a toothpick and insert into the centre and when it comes out clean then it is perfect.
9. Allow the cake to cool down for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
