Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 180 °C (356 °F). Prepare your baking pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free oats and freshly grated carrots. Crack in the eggs, add the applesauce and honey, and mix until a homogenous batter forms.
  3. Introduce the vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, and salt into the batter. Stir gently to ensure even distribution.
  4. If desired, fold in chopped nuts or dried fruits for extra texture. Mix gently until they are evenly dispersed.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 30-40 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  6. Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then flip it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
