Can I use coconut sugar instead?

happyzhangbo   

Coconut sugar should be ok to replace sugar. Happy baking :)

anonymous

Shall I want to beat sugar, egg and other ingredients also?

anonymous

Came out great! Two thumbs up!

anonymous

You can use refined brown sugar.instead of the usual white sugar....it tastes great just the same. And more healthier.

anonymous   

brown sugar is not healthier, its white sugar with molasses.

ur dumb

This cake came out great! I didn’t use nuts I added a few golden raisins. It is moist indeed.

anonymous

Can I substitute
vegetable oil with butter?

anonymous

I find using oils instead of butter makes it super moist. At best use both, but half the recipe quantity.

anonymous

Delicious cake

anonymous

Can I use whole wheat flour?

happyzhangbo   

Yes, you can definitely use whole wheat flour. Whole wheat pastry flour might be better. But either way works.

Modified this recipe a lot, but turned out amazing! Reduced carrot to 1 cup, added pineapple and banana, no walnuts, same amount of apple. Used an erythritol/stevia/sugar sweetener combo. Reduced oil to 2 tablespoons and added non-fat greek yogurt and applesauce to replace the fat content and keep the moisture. Also added lemon zest, and cardamom bitters.

Sounds great -- but a whole different recipe :-)
Lemon zest sounds like a good idea.

That sounds amazing, I might steal some of those ideas ;)

anonymous

I used half of the following: brown sugar, white sugar, oil and butter. Followed every other instruction to the teeth. Turned out beautifully. Thanks.

Instead of egg what i can use

Mashed banana

It is not a bad recipe, but it tastes very oily, not moist.

anonymous

What apples should I use and can I make this into a round cake

Barbara Dibblee

i used just what the recipe called for, have made this before with raisins one-time, one-time brown sugar, another time raisins, added pineapple, all delicious.
