This cake still comes out really tender and moist and is packed to the brim with carrots which gives it an amazing flavor and color too. And surprisingly, you’d never actually know.

I love this cake. It is sweet, sticky, and spiced. You would literally never know that this cake was healthy. It oozes this really creamy cashew maple glaze along with sticky caramel sauce.
The cake itself is moist and sweet too using maple syrup and coconut sugar. And the secret ingredient to this tasty treat is definitely the addition of applesauce that makes the cake just so soft that it crumbles and melts in your mouth.
I really thought my eyes were deceiving me when I made this cake. I looked at this drool-inducing stomach-rumbling wedge of rich chocolatey hazelnut cake and thought this has to be around 1000 calories.

Is there anything like the smell of fresh pumpkin bread coming out of the oven? I think not. This super moist and luscious cake uses pumpkin puree, a whole host of spices, along with a drop of honey or maple syrup for that sweetness.
What’s more is that it is super easy to make too! Just pop all of your ingredients into one bowl, mix, and pour into your baking pan.
