Ingredients

2 cups Grated carrots

1 1/2 cups Raisins

2 cups Water

1 1/2 tsp. Cinnamon

1 1/2 tsp. Allspice

1/2 tsp. Cloves

1 cup Sugar

1/2 tsp. Salt

3 cups Unbleached or whole-wheat pastry flour

1 1/2 tsp. Baking soda

1 cup Soy milk

Tofu cream frosting (see recipe)

Preparation

Simmer the grated carrots, raisins, water, and spices in a saucepan for 10 minutes.

Stir in the sugar and salt and simmer for 2 more minutes.

Cool completely.

Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, stir the flour and soda together. Add the cooled carrot mixture, along with the soy milk, and stir just to mix.

Spray a 9-inch-by-9-inch pan with nonstick spray and spread the batter in it. Bake for 1 hour. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

Serve plain or frost with Tofu Cream Frosting when completely cooled. Makes 9 servings
