Vincent's Eggless, Sugarless Carrot Cake
My son was born with a number of health difficulties, this was a snack he was able to eat and did so right up to about the age of 4. Thankfully he has outgrown his intolerances and can now eat anything and everything (and he does). I created this recipe out of necessity, great as mini muffins and contain zero sugar. Walnuts can be added (chopped), but not recommended for anyone with any allergies OR young children as they can choke.
