No-bake carrot cake with a silky cashew cream cheese frosting? Yes please! If you like carrot cake, you will love this cake that has zero consequences. You can eat this vegan carrot cake for breakfast, lunch dinner, or dessert, guilt free!

Ingredients

Cream Cheese-y Frosting:

2 cups soaked cashews

1/4 cup coconut oil

1/2 cup maple syrup

1/2 cup whole coconut milk (from the can)

1/4 cup fermented coconut water or lemon juice

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon pineapple juice

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Carrot Cake:

4 cups carrot pulp or grated carrot shreds

2 cups pitted dates

1 cup frozen, fresh or canned pineapple (canned will be slightly sweeter but you sacrifice the raw)

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes

Preparation

• Soak cashews for about four hours, then rinse.
• Combine all the carrot cake ingredients in a high-speed blender and blend until completely smooth. Scrape down the sides for even blending every minute or so.
• Press into a pan (I used an 8-inch springform).
