JO ANN'S SPELT-CAROB CAKE (WHEAT-FREE)



Jo Ann's Spelt-Carob Cake (Wheat-Free) image

This is a great recipe that I got from my friend Jo Ann. It's good as a round layer cake with (healthy) icing or warm as a slab cake with a mound of whipped cream on each serving. (Note: After receiving a mediocre review, I have changed the recipe to use light spelt flour rather than regular. You should not have a problem with light spelt flour.)

My son is allergic to chocolate so I spent several years perfecting the ultimate carob cake recipe. I have finally achieved it! Oh, and it also had to be Feingold friendly, since we are 100% feingold.
