I actually liked this

my friend made it last night and it was lush with Swedish Glace Vanilla soft ice cream (gluten & lactose free!)

Carrot Cake

Dry
100g grated carrot
75g plain wholemeal flour
100g soft dark brown sugar
½ teaspoon bicarbonate
¼ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon mixed spice
½ teaspoon cinnamon

Wet
3floz oil
1 egg
Splash vanilla essence

Mix all dry ingredient. Then mix all wet ingredient. Then mix both together. Grease & line a tin. I used a large loaf tin, with double measures.

Cook in a preheated oven: 180/Gas Mark 4 for 1 ¼ hrs

I had it in a fan assisted oven for 50mins and took it out as it started to burn :/ will try 45mins next time.

Got no cream cheese for the frosting though
