Looks good - I'll try this recipe. I'm sure you meant CANOLA oil and not GRANOLA oil. LOL

This was extremely good. I will never need another carrot cake recipe. I only had apple juice, and that worked fine. The frosting was, though, a tad on the sweet side. It would be fine with half the sugar. All in all, though, thank you for submitting this wonderful recipe.

I made this without the nuts and raisins, and sunflower oil instead of canola (or rapeseed oil), and it worked perfectly. A cake even a non-vegan like me could enjoy :) Thanks for this recipe, it's really good!

This stuff is absolutely fantastic. It's good enough to be eaten without any frosting. Thank you for posting this recipe.

Can you suggest a pan size?

Thanks for all the comments everyone! I use a rectangle 9x13 pan and slice them into squares kind of like brownies. Enjoy!

I made this for my mother-in-law for her birthday, she's not vegan but we are, and she went NUTS. I made it into cupcakes, reducing the baking time to 30 min, and added more tofutti cream cheese to the frosting to make it more cheesy. This recipe is incredible and I'll be making these again for Thanksgiving. Thanks so much!!

This recipe is awesome!
I didnt have orange juice so I used Hempmilk and they turned out awesome.
I also added vanilla, nutmeg, pepitas, a little bit of shredded coconut, and chopped dates
which tasted awesome if anyones curious to try
