Easy Vegan Carrot Cake Recipe for One!
Vegan Carrot Cake
Carrot Cake is a classic Fall time recipe. If you haven’t found your favorite carrot cake recipe yet, this one might be the one. I love making baked recipes when I am working from home and don’t have too much time to cook. Since living alone, I never enjoyed doing the dishes, and baking always allowed me to bring back more time in the day.
