The recipe for carrot cake with almond flour is so easy to make, delicious and moist. A great option for Sunday fancy breakfast or just great with a cup of tea or coffee. I am not a big fan of carrot cakes that I tried in the past but this one really good! Every ingredient is so common except almond flour. We can buy it at the store but homemade almond flour is the best and will be much better! Homemade almond flour is so tasty, we can use it in desserts or just eat it as is, not necessary to use in baking. Almond flour is a gluten-free flour if it is important for your diet. If you watch your weight this cake is the winner because contains just a small amount of wheat flour.

Super easy and pretty garnish for carrot cake is sugar powder. For the impressive presentation, I use a darker blue color plate. If white sugar powder is in contrast with the plate, the design will stand out. I use a stencil to make a doily design and very convenient to use to sprinkle sugar tea strainer.
