I used walnuts but pecans would be great too.3 cups freshly grated carrots1 cup raisins1/2 cup coconut4 ounces cream cheese1 teaspoon vanilla extract2 cups gluten-free powdered sugar
Directions
I used my food processor but this can easily be made with mixer.
1. In food processor add spenda sugar blend, flour, baking soda,guar gum, baking powder, cinnamon, salt and pulse to blend thoroughly.
2. Add eggs, applesauce and oil and vanilla. Blend. Pour batter into large bowl.
3. Grate carrots in food processor. Stir in carrots, raisins, coconut and nuts.
4. Pur into greased and floured bundt pan. I used rice flour.
4. Bake in preheated oven for 45-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean. For muffins, reduce baking time to 30-35 minutes or until they pass the toothpick test. Cool on a wire rack.

5.While cake or muffins are cooling place cream cheese and vanilla in a large mixing bowl and beat on high until smooth. Add powdered sugar and beat until smooth and creamy.

6.When cake is cool frost.
