Egg-less carrot cake- Soft moist and delicious Carrot cake

Carrot Cake-As the Christmas is coming near every body is in holiday spirit and busy in baking cakes and baked goodies.I have not done baking from a long time as my children are now diet conscious and avoid eating sugary and fatty foods so I have to think many times before make such things because I was the one who have to finish all the sweet stuff, anyways its Christmas time now and I cant resist baking a simple cake at least.

Initially I was confused to choose which cake should I bake a Eggless Fruit and Nut cake or a Orange Tutti frutti cake .The beautiful looking Pineapple upside down cake is my daughters favourite but I cooks it often.I have not tried a carrot cake though I was planning to bake it from some time so after searching the net for an eggless recipe I come up with this recipe and tried this cake which turned out moist and delicious !

I have done a simple cream cheese frosting on it but you can serve it without frosting or do any frosting of your choice.
