What you need – we recommend organic ingredients. Use what you have available.
Organic carrots, shredded – 1/2 cup 
Organic coconut milk (do not substitute with another plant milk) – 1/3 cup
Organic apple sauce – 1/3 cup 
Organic extra-virgin cold-pressed olive oil – 2 tbsp + 2 tsp
Organic apple cider vinegar – 1 tsp 
Vanilla extract – 1/2 Tbsp 
Spring/Filtered water (for flax egg) – 2 tbsp + 2 tsp
 
Procedure –
	
Separately prepare the flax egg in a small bowl by mixing ground flax + water into a slurry.  Let sit for 10 minutes.
	
Mix wet ingredients together.
	
Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix thoroughly.
	
Add in flax egg.
	
Evenly divide batter into lined cupcake pans, about 3/4 full. 
	
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 18 minutes.  (bake until the batter rises.)
	
Warning: every oven is different.  Please keep an eye on your baking time.  Yours may require less or more time.  When you notice that amazing smell of fresh cake, and the batter has risen, it is most likely done baking!
	
Allow to cool before removing from pan.
	
Layer with your favorite frosting, icing and fillings.  Store in the refrigerator or freezer for shelf life.
	
Decorate with your choice of creams and fillings (not included).
