# Instructions:
01 -
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups almond flour, 1/4 cup coconut flour, 2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, 2 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg, and 1/2 tsp salt. Set aside.
02 -
In a separate large bowl, whisk 4 large eggs. Add 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter or coconut oil, 3/4 cup erythritol or monk fruit blend sweetener, and 1 tbsp vanilla extract. Stir in 2 cups finely grated carrots.

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack. Allow to cool completely before frosting. This is crucial for the best Keto No Sugar No Flour Carrot Cake | Healthy Dessert.

In a medium bowl, beat 8 oz full-fat cream cheese (softened) and 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened) until smooth. Gradually add 1/2 cup powdered erythritol or monk fruit blend sweetener and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Beat until light and fluffy.

Once the cake is completely cool, spread the velvety cream cheese frosting evenly over the top and sides. Garnish with extra chopped pecans or walnuts, if desired. Slice and serve your healthy dessert!
