Notes
The spices add so much flavour, you can skip it and add a a few drops of vanilla essence

Top with bananas if you like, but carrot cake does not have bananas :)

Chia seeds are optional. See their benefits here!

Use whole/full cream milk for the full taste

Replace brown sugar with regular granulated white sugar or skip it all together

This recipe can be easily doubled/tripled
