Carrot Cake with Orange Glaze



This carrot cake comes from Elana's Pantry, my very favorite blog. I cut the recipe in half and made it in a glass pie plate. I made an orange glaze instead of frosting and served it with whipped cream.

Recipe for the cake from Elana's Pantry
to make SCD legal use honey instead of Agave.

For the glaze, combine 1/3 c. orange juice and 1/3 c. honey. Simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add a squirt of lemon juice and 1 tsp. vanilla, stir and let sit until ready to use. Once the cake has cooled poke holes in it with a fork. Pour glaze over the top and let sit at least 2 hours. Serve with whipped cream and store the leftovers in the refrigerator.
