Grain Free Vegan Cake

Dealing with food allergies or sensitivities can be so incredibly stressful; especially around birthdays. I needed a recipe for my 2 year old's birthday, that was Paleo and free of sugar, coconut, nuts, eggs and more. I found a recipe on Gutsy by Nature website and tweaked it a little bit, to fit my son's diet. And as usual, I added some greens to it, for some extra nutrients.

• ⅓ cup carob powder

• 1 cup tigernut flour
