You’ve probably heard of the
Instant Pot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯But these simple & easy to follow recipes work with any pressure cooker! All pressure cookers work on the same, simple principle: Steam pressure.
Within the sealed pot, the steam builds up therein to a very high pressure, which helps food cook much faster than other traditional methods, such as with crock pots and or ovens!
This is a seriously incredible carrot cake, and you would never know that it’s gluten-free and made with no refined sugar!! This healthy carrot cake recipe is made using almond and quinoa flours, and is naturally sweetened, and uses applesauce to reduce the amount of sugar and oil!! Covered in vegan cashew frosting.
