Eggless Carrot Cake

Whole wheat flour, carrots and walnuts make this eggless carrot cake a healthy option. The olive oil gives the cake a nice moist texture which remains so for at least two days, the cake will disappear much before that though. Eat as a tea time snack or use as a tiffin filler for kids.
