Don’t Knock It Until You Try It Beet Cake!!, Yes, this cake is made with beets! And you won’t believe how great it is I got the recipe from a friend who said it is the most requested cake in her family Even the kids want it for their birthday cake I baked it for one of our family gatherings and now, I get lots of requests for it too The batter looks red, but the red bakes out I use an almond flavored frosting on it sometimes Other times I just serve it with homemade whipped cream ”, My cake looked like a chocolate cake am wondering if it’s because I used less beets Used about 1 cup and a half Also used less sugar and less oil I still find that I needed to use less sugar But flavour was good What about addinadding ginger and nutmeg? Am thinking it might boost the flavour , Reduced sugar to 1/2 cup (used coconut sugar), added 2 T honey and 2 T carob powder Reduced vanilla to 1 tsp so it wouldn’t over power the flavor of beets
