Flax Seed Carrot Cake - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 egg whites
2/3 cup white sugar
1/4 cup nonfat milk
1/3 cup applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
1 1/3 cups whole wheat flour
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons ground flax seed
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 cup raisins
1/2 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup grated carrot

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly oil a 9x5 inch loaf pan with vegetable cooking spray.
Whisk together the egg whites, sugar, milk, applesauce, vanilla, and almond extract in a small bowl; mix until well blended. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, whole wheat flour, flax seed, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and baking soda. Mix the egg into the flour; stir until well blended. Fold in the walnuts, raisins, carrot, and drained pineapple. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (but not necessarily dry), about 40 minutes. Set aside to cool for 10 to 20 minutes before refrigerating overnight.
