The Best 3 minute Carrot Cake for two, gluten free, sugar free

A wonderful spiced carrot cake in just 3 minutes?  Yes! These are the best I have ever made and they are low carb and sugar free!  Many of the microwave cakes that I've made tasted eggy or spongy and even though they were good, they didn't taste like a cake.  These came out with a crumb! They make a perfect desert with a little whipped cream or frozen yogurt.  Yum!

Don't worry if your cake rises way up as it cooks!  It won't go over if you make sure that your batter only fills the coffee cup halfway.  Also, don't overcook.
Mine turned out perfect after 3 minutes, so depending on the power of your microwave, start with 2 minutes and touch the top of the cake with your finger.  If it's wet, go for another 30 seconds to a minute.

  • 3 tablespoons your choice of sweetener
  • 1 teaspoon gluten free pure vanilla
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 small carrot, finely grated or 6 tablespoons
Instructions:
  1. Mix all ingredients in a small bowl.  Your dough will be thick but wet
  2. Spoon EVENLY into two coffee cups. The batter should only fill the cup 1/2 way to leave room for expansion.
