Thank you for supporting the sponsors that help keep Downshiftology going! Promised hubby I'd make him a carrot cake this week and though I have a great recipe already I wanted to see if I could find a good gluten free one. Easy gluten-free carrot cake recipe makes a moist and delicious cake. Add pineapple for an extra treat. Test it by inserting a cake tester in the middle of the cake.
