Ingredients: 1 cup wholemeal self-raising flour 1/2 cup self-raising flour 3/4 cup sugar 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger 1/4 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda 1/4 cup chopped walnuts 2 teaspoons grated lemon rind 1/4 cup sultanas 2 large carrots, grated 1/2 cup warm water 1/4 cup canola oil 2 teaspoons white vinegar
Icing: 1 cup icing sugar 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Method: 1. Lightly spray a 19cm square cake tin with oil spray; line base with non-stick baking paper. 2. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Spread into tin. 3. Bake in a moderate oven (180°C) for 35 to 40 minutes or until cooked when tested. 4. Stand for 5 minutes before turning onto a wire cake rack to cool.
Icing: Sift icing sugar mixture into a small bowl, stir in enough juice to give a smooth spreading consistency. Spread icing over the top of the cake.
Notes: For special occasions you can decorate the cake with a glace carrot. To do this cut a small carrot into thin strip. Combine 1/4 cup water with 1/2 cup sugar in a small pan, stir over heat, without boiling, until sugar is dissolved. Add carrot, simmer 5 minutes, remove and cool. Decorate cake with glace carrot and sprig of mint. Serve together with wedges of fresh orange.

or you could try replacing the egg with apple sauce (not chunky, but smooth.)
