This is a lean, vegetarian carrot cake with semolina. Flour with juicy carrots gives you a lot of stickiness, or carrot cakes, often make or 50/50 with flour. My cake is pure manna. Very tasty and original. Do not be embarrassed that he is lean - he is awesome, tasty and harmonious, baking him all year round. Fragrant, juicy, looks like an oriental sweet soaked in syrup. If you use a crock, you must additionally add water to the dough. Pie without eggs and without flour, so I recommend to cool it before cutting into portions. Cardamom is very important for flavor, it can not be replaced with anything, cardamom goes well with carrots and does not interrupt it. In the dough, I add more lemon zest and vanilla sugar. Other spices (cloves, cinnamon) I do not recommend adding.
