Ingredients You Will Need

To make eggless carrot cake I have used whole wheat flour entirely. The cake is denser and a bit of darker shade due to wheat flour. If you prefer lighter cakes or preparing carrot cake for celebrations you can use all purpose flour. You can also use 1 cup wheat flour and 1/2 cup all purpose flour. But the flavor and taste of carrot cake is so good with wheat flour.

Sweetened condensed milk and melted butter provide the taste and texture for this cake.
