Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix flour, flax, baking soda, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, mix sugar and pumpkin until creamy.
  4. Add vanilla, then add applesauce and carrots.
  5. Mix wet and dry ingredients together and add raisins if using.
  6. Pour batter in a greased* 9x13 pan or two 9 in cake rounds for a layer cake.
  7. Bake for 40 - 45 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Cool adequately if frosting or adding topping**.
  9. *To grease the pan I use 1-2 tsp of non hydrogenated vegan margarine because it gives the cake a little richness without adding a lot of fat.
  10. ** For a nice low-fat topping I put crushed pineapple on top.
