How to Make Carrot Cake Dairy Free

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
In a separate bowl, combine grated carrots, vegetable oil, applesauce, vanilla extract, and water. Mix well.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in optional nuts and raisins.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Frost with your favorite dairy-free frosting (optional).
