This Eggless Beetroot Carrot Cake is dedicated to my mother as she hates beetroot. She is suffering from anemia and doctor has advised to eat beetroot. Hence I thought of making this special combination cake with carrots and beet both. She has a sweet tooth and loves cakes. Even if she eats a slice of it everyday there is sufficient iron and vitamin going in her body.

She loved this Eggless Beetroot Carrot Cake and just relished it. Since than I make this yummy cake quite often. I generally add less sugar to avoid fat content. I use Brown sugar as its better than Icing sugar. Also I don’t like too sweet cakes so I cut on the sugar part. If you are health conscious you can use skimmed milk and avoid cream and sweetened milk for this recipe. Also you could use fat free sugar.

What you could do is you should always taste the cake batter before pouring on the greased dish. Check the sweetness and add more sugar if required. That’s what I do!

So anyone at your home lacking iron you know what to give them …
