Ingredients

• 2 cups Juicer pulp (carrot, apple, and/or beet recommended)
• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 3 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
• 0.5 cup Raisins or dried cranberries (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Whisk together until evenly mixed.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, vegetable oil, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract. Stir the wet mixture into the dry mixture until just combined.

Step 4

Fold in the juicer pulp, chopped walnuts or pecans (if using), and raisins or dried cranberries (if using) until evenly distributed.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 7

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Step 8

Optional: Dust the top with powdered sugar or frost with cream cheese frosting for an extra touch of sweetness and style.
