Excellent carrot cake. I used greek yogurt instead of buttermilk and all purpose flour and it work perfectly. It is light and moist and doesn't have that oily texture that you get with most carrot cakes. You can spice it up to your own taste. This is the one I will make from now on. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

This was nice, heavier than expected, but still really nice. It is better the second day for sure.

OH MY GOD. This was amazing. OK, let me share with you all what I did. I followed the ingredients exactly except: #1 I didn't have buttermilk, so I used skim milk, and #2, I added based on other reviews, 1/2 tsp of allspice, ground cloves, and nutmeg, and increased cinnamon to 2 tsps. All I can say is wow. I also made an alternative form of frosting because I didn't have cream cheese or powdered sugar: 1 c milk, 1/4 c flour stirring constantly over medium high heat as it thickens and boils, then add to creamed 1 c butter 1 c granulated sugar and 2 tsp vanilla. This was delicious!

Probably because of it being a lite recipe it was a bit dry. Family liked it but it was not a wow!

This is the first carrot cake recipe I've tried and I love it! I eat mostly healthy foods but my weakness is cake. So, needless to say, I'm a very experienced cake taster! I can tell this one is lower fat than what you would get at a bakery or restaurant, however, it has wonderful flavor and is very moist. My family couldn't even tell it was healthier. It satisfies my cake craving and I will definitely make again!

I thought this was really bland. Luckily I used the cake for cake balls and was able to remedy the problem with the addition of some nutmeg and ground cloves into the frosting cake crumble mix. I appreciate that this healthier than the original, but it is lacking in flavor.

This is a delicious, moist recipe! To make it even better, I added a little bit each of cloves, nutmeg, ginger, raisins, vanilla, walnuts, and flax. I also swapped the buttermilk for skim milk and the oil for applesauce. This is a great healthy dessert.
