Spiced Lentil Loaf Cake Recipe By Bridjet “Bee” Lee
I love carrot cake, but shredding cups of carrots is hard on my wrist, and I don't have a food processor that can do the work for me. I also love cakes that 'hide' vegetables and fruits in the ingredients (like zucchini loaf and banana bread). One day as I was cooking red lentils for dinner, I was struck by their moist, orange consistency and wondered how well they would hold up as a substitute in carrot cake. At the same time, I wanted to make a loaf that would be not too sweet - perfect alongside a cup of coffee or topped with butter after dinner!
Note: This recipe can be made vegan by substituting the eggs for flax seed 'eggs' (2 tbsp ground flax seeds soaked in 6 tbsp of water, for this recipe), or egg replacement of choice.
