Cake #90 - Carrot and Cranberry Cake

Wednesday Natural Ingredient / Healthy Cake - Carrot and Cranberry Cake with Raisins and Seeds

Crazy for craisins? To be honest, I am not, but in this cake they taste great, together with all the other healthy ingredients. If you want to make this cake even more healthy, use wholemeal flour and reduce the amount of sugar by half. 

I do not like sweet treats for breakfast but a slice of this cake was a perfect morning boost. Made with brown sugar, it is not too sweet. Warm up in microwave or toast, and enjoy with butter! Loads of butter.
