• 1/2 cup applesauce
• 2 1/4 cups Splenda sugar substitute (bake-able sugar substitute)
• 3 cups flour
• 2 cups carrots, chopped in a food processor
• 1/4 cup skim milk
• 1 1/2 tablespoons cinnamon
• 1/2 tablespoon orange zest, grated
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 pinch salt
• 1/2 cup raisins (optional)
• cream cheese frosting
• 8 ounces light cream cheese
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup Splenda granular

1. Mix first 3 items together until smooth and creamy (eggs, applesauce and Splenda).
2. Then add flour, carrots, milk, cinnamon, orange zest, baking soda and baking powder. Mix well until thick like a pancake batter, then add raisins if desired.
3. Pour into two sprayed loaf pans and bake for 45 minutes at 325u0b0F.
4. Check with a toothpick.
5. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack. Ice loaves once completely cooled.
6. CREAM CHEESE ICING.
