Carrot Pineapple Cake

TweetPinShareYummly

A healthy fruit and vegetable combination: carrot cake with crushed pineapple and walnuts. This is a great way to introduce vegetables like carrots to people who dislike eating vegetables or those picky eaters who always remove carrots to dishes while they are eating. You will this carrot cake because it also has a cheese cream frosting and there is another option in case you don’t like icing. You can coat it with butter rum sauce to make it more appetizing.
