Ingredients
Method
- If you are making the Browned Butter Sour Cream Frosting, brown the butter now and refrigerate.
- Preheat oven to 350. Grease a 9 x 13 inch pan.
- Place craisins in a small pot with ¼ cup of orange juice (use the orange you will need to zest). Bring to a boil and simmer for a few minutes to plump up the dried cranberries. Set aside.
- Sift the baking mix, baking soda, baking powder, salt, jell-o pudding and spices using a triple sifter.
- Place the egg in the large bowl of a mixer. Beat on medium high speed with wire whisk attachment for two minutes, or until light in color and thickened. Add the sugars 1 tablespoon at a time, taking about 4 minutes to add it all. Add the mayonnaise, vanilla, orange zest and baby carrots. Whip for another two minutes.
- Turn the mixer down to medium. Slowly pour the oil in a steady stream. Beat for one to two minutes until the oil is completely incorporated.
- Change to a paddle attachment. Add the starch mixture all at once, blending for about 30 seconds on a low speed. Add the pineapple with juice, blend again. Using a spatula, fold in the carrots and craisins. Pour the batter into prepared pan, smoothing the surface with the spatula.
- Bake for 50 to 55 minutes. A piece of raw spaghetti should come out clean when inserted in the center. Cool the pan on a rack. After 20 minutes, carefully invert the cake onto a cooling rack (place rack on top of pan and gently flip). When completely cool invert it back to serving plate and frost.
Notes
Reader Q&A:
Q: Have you tried this with egg replacer and not actual egg? The distinction isn’t notes in the ingredient list and I’m not sure if PKU-ers can eat egg or not, but my daughter has tyrosinemia. A: If you look at our FAQ, I explain why egg is used in some recipes. If your child does not have an allergy and the end protein amount in a serving works, it is ok to use. If you need the protein to be less, you can try ener-g egg replacer.
Q: Where can I buy the Cook For Love Baking Mix? A: CFL does not sell anything at the moment. You would make the mix yourself: https://cookforlove.org/recipes/detail/73116
