My Mom always buys the Namaste brand spice cake mix, and makes it into a carrot cake with raisins and cream cheese frosting. It's good, and it freezes well, too (she makes the mini-loaves so I can always have something handy).

What a great-looking recipe. Can't wait to try it..... I miss carrot cake, too.

I know you weren't thinking of mixes, but I have to echo Ang's recommendation. The Namaste spice cake has the carrot cake variation right on the bag and it is beyond awesome! I too added raisins, plus walnuts, and used plain ol' Pillsbury cream cheese frosting. Heaven.

I have made this a few times. I use Pamela's Baking Mix, which already has Xanthan gum. I would think you could also use Featherlite or some other flour mix and then add 1 tsp Xanthan gum.

This makes one layer - double for a two-layer cake or 9 X 13 (a 9 X 13 takes about 45 - 50 minutes to bake). Also, I just buy the frosting (read labels) but I have a recipe (at home) for frosting - it takes cream cheese, butter, vanilla and powdered sugar. If you want I can post it as well.

Carrot Cake

1/2 cup vegetable oil

2 eggs

1/2 cup sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

pinch of salt

2/3 cup Pamela's Baking mix

1 cup shredded carrots

mix ingredients well, then add carrots

bake in greased 8-inch round

350 F for approximately 30 minutes

toothpick should come out clean

cool and frost with

Cream Cheese Frosting

      I was undiagnosed for quite a few years. I now have neuropathy in my hands and feet. Be watchful of something like this and definitely see a neurologist if having symptoms like numbness in your extremities.

      How to choose a Naturopath for 6yr old

      Hello, @jadeceoliacuk, Has your son been tested for nutritional deficiencies?  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of essential nutrients which can result in nutritional deficiencies.  Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals is beneficial.   I would find a nutritionist more knowledgeable about Celiac and ASD, before taking herbal supplements that don't contain essential vitamins. Interesting Reading: Relationship between Vitamin Deficiencies and Co-Occurring Symptoms in Autism Spectrum Disorder https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7279218/   Autistic Spectrum Disorder, Mitochondria, and Nutrient Deficiencies https://hormonesmatter.com/autistic-spectrum-disorder-asd-mitochondria-nutrients/   Relationship between Vitamin Deficiencies and Co-Occurring Symptoms in Autism Spectrum Disorder https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7279218/ Keep us posted on your progress!
