I have added rosewater to this fruit and vegetable-packed cake, but be careful to use it sparingly as it is one of those flavours where less is more. The pink glaze is a natural combination of pomegranate juice and icing sugar. It’s straightforward to make but pretty enough this recipe for any tea or family gathering.


Method:

Ingredients

200g self-raising flour

100g golden caster sugar

140g butter or non dairy margarine

1½ tsp baking powder

3 large eggs

½ tsp rose water

150ml non-dairy coconut yoghurt

100g grated carrot, roughly 1 carrot

40g roughly chopped pistachios

Glaze

1 pomegranate, seeds plus approximately 2 tbsp juice

150g icing sugar, sifted

2 tbsp pistachio nuts, roughly chopped
