Turned out fantastic - moist and delicious. I used a dog shaped pan which took just under half the batter and baked it for about 30-40 minutes. I also made mini-muffins which took about 15 - 20 minutes. I love that it doesn't require sugar or eggs and it was easy to make the first time! I omitted the nuts as I made it for my son's first birthday. What a great recipe! Turned out fantastic – moist and delicious.

Very good. Used only 3/4 cup soy milk and 1 cup applesauce. Added small can crushed pineapple, drained. Was ready to come out of the oven at 30 minutes. Frosted with the cream cheese, maple syrup suggestion below. Will make again, very tasty and super easy. Oh, I also bought already shredded carrots and just chopped them up a bit smaller.

Instead of cream cheese frosting I'm doing a raw 'pudding' recipe that looks and tastes like frosting to me. It is an avocado, dates, and cocoa powder...if it is too thick I do sometimes add organic rice milk to or i guess I'll try more avocado...its really yummy. If I make them as muffins, I just do not add a frosting at all. Thanks. I too added crushed pineapple and some currants.

Not sure if this is how it was meant to turn out? I baked it for at least an hour. This cake has a great flavour, but a little too pudding-like for my taste.

I cut the cinnamon in half and it took much longer in my oven (I think the temp is off by 25 degrees). Very good with lemon cream cheese frosting. Way to be vegan baking with no sugar!

I made muffins out of it, which baked for about 21 minutes if anyone was curious. I loved that it wasn't too sweet, especially since I paired it with a very sweet cream cheese frosting!
