Carrot Cake with Tangy Frosting

April 11, 2020 by Linda Watson Leave a Comment

Carrot cake with frosting

I’ve updated my carrot cake recipe by adding a tangy frosting that tastes like a cream-cheese frosting, but with ingredients that may be easier to get. The cake is moist and spicy, with flecks of orange carrot. The healthy ingredients include plenty of carrots (surprise!), fresh ginger, white whole wheat flour, and very little oil. […]

Apple Walnut Crumble

November 17, 2017 by Linda Watson Leave a Comment

Apple Crumble recipe ingredients: Granny Smith apples, walnuts, white whole wheat flour, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg

Apple Crumble is a more relaxed yet still comforting version of apple pie. It’s an updated version of Dutch Apple Cake, now with more apples plus healthy walnuts, half the fat and flour, and less than half the sugar. Instead of wasting time peeling apples, just slice them thinly and cut the slices into bite-sized pieces. The baked peels add texture and nutrition.
