Mini Carrot Cakes for Passover

Recipe Description

One of my closest friends is allergic to gluten and as a result, I’m always on the lookout for delicious gluten free recipes like this Flourless Mini Carrot Cakes for Passover which is so delicious, you won’t even know it is gluten free!

Start by separating the egg whites and yolks. Beat the yolks together with sugar and add lemon juice and zest, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and vanilla, almond flour and carrots. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites and sugar together until stiff peaks form. Bake in the oven and once cooled, drizzle with a vanilla glaze made from vegan cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla and cinnamon. Enjoy! 

To make my Flourless Mini Carrot Cakes, you will need the following ingredients:
