- Gluten-free chemical yeast1 tablespoon

- Start by separating the ingredients needed to prepare this gluten-free, lactose-free and egg-free cake. In this case, we will be using almond flour or ground almonds and corn starch (cornstarch) to replace wheat and water as a substitute for milk.
- Then preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease a 20-22 cm round pan with oil and sprinkle well with cornstarch. If you prefer, put paper towel to bake cake.
- If you don't have almond flour at home, just have at least 250 grams of almonds (preferably skinless)! In this case, grind the almonds in a blender or food processor until they turn into flour, as in the photo.
- Add the almond flour and sugar to the blender and beat well, to get the sugar to be finer too. Again, this step is important for achieving a lighter carrot cake!
- Peel and chop the carrots and put them in a blender. Also add the water and beat until obtaining a uniform, homogeneous mixture.
- Now add the rest of the ingredients in the blender: the corn starch (maizena), the yeast and the salt. Whisk until well blended and your carrot cake is ready to bake!
- Pour the dough for this special carrot cake into the previously prepared form and bake in the oven for 45 minutes at 180°C. At the end, do the toothpick test to make sure it's ready.
- When the cake is ready, remove from the oven and let it cool before unmoulding, to prevent it from breaking. When serving, you can sprinkle with icing sugar or prepare a lactose-free chocolate ganache.
