Carrot Cake in a Mug | Cheap Clean Eats

[@sophiem2352]

I replaced the carrots with cacao powder and cacao nibs to make a chocolate cake and it was delicious! Thank you!!

[@143637]

i absolutely love your cce series! i look forward to it every thursday and have learned so much from these videos. you have proved to me that it can be cheap to make healthy food, and quick to make it too! THANK YOU TONS & TONS & TONS!!!!

[@NothingButJo]

Some carrots to give it a little 'carrocter' XD

[@HaylieGrace]

I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who noticed this LOL

[@Winkdollbeauty]

cassey makes ALL videos happy. she always cheers me up when i watch her. i wish i could meet her in person some day!

[@musicofthenight886]

One does not simply go to the store and buy 15 cents worth of anything.. As much as I adore Cassey and Cheap Clean Eats, I must point out that these recipes aren't typically cheap at all considering I don't already have all the ingredients lying around my house. Don't get me wrong. I absolutely love these recipes and workouts. I just don't necessarily agree with the idea that any of this is "cheap".

[@EinyelFit]

Music Of The Night it depends where you buy the products (I make videos, too, about fitness recipes but in Spanish) and I have to go to different supermarkets so that I can find affordable prices :) Maybe you should look for another place to buy!

[@tiffanyforever123]

I roar every time you do your taste test! I love love love your cheap clean eats! I'm pretty sure I favourite everything so I can make it some day! Lots of love girl.

[@ChinitaPau]

more desserts that you make in a microwave plz!

[@kconley58]

Love this recipe, just tried it and it is scrumptious. Thank you, Cassey! Tip: use a hand mixer, rather than a blender or food processor for the frosting. I made it in my cuisineart and it made a huge mess.

[@powjaceerattashiny206]

Banana bread please!!!

[@crisespi23]

I didn't have the required ingredients but I really wanted to make a carrot cake in a mug. It ended up tasting very good anyway! :D I used whatever I had at home. Instead of almond flour I used strong white bread flour. I replaced stevia with sugar, used regular almond yogurt instead of Greek yogurt and skipped the step with pumpkin pie spice.

[@firdoskhan3757]

Thank you so much!!! I'm trying this out today! 😊😊😊

[@samvandenberge3802]

You were actually opening the banana the right way

[@MissLollilol222]

It actually depends on your country, her ein frnace we oppen it the other way

[@ohshitakimushroom]

I love cheap clean eats!! Thanks for making them!

[@YourFavoriteTwinzz]

The taste tests are so funny haha :-)

[@wendiland]

I can't wait to try this recipe! Would you happen to know what temperature it needs if I bake it? I don't have a microwave. Lol

[@sihintas5336]

hahaha,, you even make cooking fun! You're so funny XD

[@kayceewang8190]

to all those people complaining about how it's impossible to buy those ingredients at those prices, it's just to show how much u would spend per cake compared to buying one outside. Also it's a great reference to those who would want to sell these in a bake sale or something bc in order to calculate how much profit to make, you have to break down the cost of how much goes in each individual cake.

[@agnesforsell1878]

Just did this IT TASTE SOOO GOOOD OMG

[@CrystalCierlak]

I had no idea there was such thing as a mug cake! I don't have the ingredients for this one but I found a similar one for peanut butter cake online and just tried it out. So delicious! My fiance was afraid to try it but now he's licking the plate clean!

[@simrangill4488]

Does anyone know how many calories it is without any frosting? x

[@cynthiarod5349]

Girl I swear I just lov watching your videos!! Even making carrot cake in a mug you make it fun! :)

[@LaMasTuaniDeTodas1]

"to give it a little bit of carrot-er" Oh no! Dad jokes! You're awesome! xD

[@littlefoot2414]

I've been eating clean and doing the workout calender since March, I hope you can continue healthy recipes when it gets to Christmas time! It's easy to eat salad in the summer. Can you make some healthy BROWNIES, pleeeease Cassey? xxx

[@tfaaaa]

Some banana bread pleaseeeee!

[@Steph1431000]

Seems likes a great recipe, I can't wait to try this! Only thing I would change is using natural sugar instead of stevia.

[@JaydeVamp]

Doesn't microwaving it take out all the nutrients?

[@itsakatastrophe3351]

no don't belive everything you read online

[@sarasayeed3]

i hve no idea y i watch all the cheap clean eats since i neva get most of the ingredients where i live!!!i jst lyk watchng cassey's antics!

[@phoenyxtech]

blogilates you could make healthy lattes or something? pumpkin spice lattes are really in now since it's fall

[@PennyLain132]

i seriously love you!!!!!! I've been trying to loose weight and eat healthy and you seriously help with all my cravings!! yes I've slipped up…more then i would like to admit but you make me feel better :D and provide healthier options!!

[@MarijkeViolin]

You make me laugh out loud!

[@valliepack]

Your videos always make me feel good. I can't explain the feeling... It's just really good :)

[@BlueBelle2000]

I always get so excited about these because I have a major sweet tooth and I always want to make dessert...but I'm vegan! :( There's always eggs or yogurt or something in it. Try making some of these vegan, Cassey!

[@CtQiaCooL1]

hi guys i feel ya! but theres another carrot cake in a mug recipe thats vegan , on gemma stafford's channel . should check it out xD . no eggs or yoghurt those

[@BlueBelle2000]

CtQiaCooL1 Thank you! I will! :)

[@YoowlOwl]

hi guys There is basically a vegan variant of everything today, so it is possible to substitute the egg or yoghurt with something that has the same capabilities when it comes to baking.

[@BlueBelle2000]

Mette H-V Thank you for your suggestion! I know there are many vegan variants of almost any ingredient, but a lot of the time, the vegan versions have a lot of chemicals. Almond milk, for example, isn't just almonds and water and maybe a little natural flavoring (like vanilla) or sugar, they add a lot of preservatives/artificial flavors and colorings to make it look more like the original product, which I don't like to use because they're bad for both me and the environment. I do try making my own ingredients, sometimes- like almond milk or flax eggs, for example. Again, thank you for your suggestion, I appreciate it!

[@YoowlOwl]

hi guys You're welcome - I get that some vegan variants probably have other "unnatural" ingredients in them, yet it sounded like, to me, that you hadn't thought about the many substitutes there are. I think for eggs, though, you can do with a mixture of flaxseeds and water. There's also other milk substitutes like soy, rice, and oat (you probably knew this, too). I even think those are cheaper and it might be easier to find some that are "natural"; doesn't have added sugar etc. Though this is mainly a guess. I haven't looked too carefully at the many different "milks" as I am not vegan, but have only spend time in that aisle at the grocery store because I wanted to taste them.

[@KG227]

these always look so good! one day i'll actually get the ingredients and make this

[@racbu4678]

the laughing music was really creepy when she was grating the carrot

[@MaxsBestBootcampDanbury]

Nice! We're on a healthy mug recipe kick right now, too!

[@Princessofpuntland98]

I gonna make this for my dad

[@Oceanbabe14]

I love how bubbly you are!! I look forward to watching all of you videos you're amazing!

[@AnimeLover098]

The tofu, I mean I really love tofu and all, but tofu in the frosting scares me a bit. Lol

[@DenaliMountain]

Tiramisu or french macaroons! I would love to see either of those! Thanks for all the videos Cassey!

[@dojasonline]

i scratched my computer then you said no don't scratch ur computer

[@Sizzy84]

OMFG this is WHAT I NEED IN MY LIFE!!!! love ya cassy, you and your carrot cake get me

[@josianeguay6300]

i love your crazyness girl ! Thanks for the recipe ;p

[@edenbenson3782]

I made this and it was amazing! I did use a different frosting recipe though. Definitely go heavy with the carrot shavings.

[@jialimbu799]

can i sub the almond flour with oat flour?? :((

[@carlywatt1568]

Yeah I've tried with different flours and it work fine :)

[@Thesuflife]

+Carly Watt what about coconut flour?

[@19Yonkers]

Yum!!! I'm so excited to make this! It looks delicioussss!! Also you should healthify a chocolate milkshake! my husband is a huge fan and I'd love to make them healthily for him.

[@sunkissedkhala]

instead of adding stevia, i would just add more banana

[@vanessaleighton1545]

That means more calories, but if you want to do it that way you can.

[@b3lurxxxm3duza]

Khala Harvey that recepee could just do without the steveia at all, i find. the darker the banana, the sweeter it will be

[@blogilates]

Oh that'd be fab!

[@johnkupik9338]

the "cents" for each of the ingredients are ridiculously LOW ... where does she buy things?

[@rheapanela4835]

Well I mean you do realize that she's doing price estimates for individual measurements right? For example, she says 1 egg = 15 cents. However, if you don't already have eggs, you'd still have to buy a dozen of eggs at the store (because they don't sell eggs individually), so you'd still have to spend $2.00 getting that single egg. You'd basically still have to buy things in bulk with their original price.

[@XxChantellXx1]

IT doesn't 'literally' cost that amount like you can't go to the shops and buy an egg for $.13 she is calculating how much it costs per gram

[@marywelling]

i'm so excited to try this!!! mmmm i'm gonna try with oatmeal instead of the flour.

[@ashleybrittneyromeroratlif137]

I love her channel but hate when she puts 5¢ , 15¢ like where? u have to buy ALL THE INGREDIENTS AS WHOLE u can't go to the syore and say can I have one tbsp of almond flour 5 tsp of cream cheese like all those ingredients are $20 total then u can make it but really be realistic u can't just say that's a cake in a mug for $1.25 got me excited for nothing👎😞

[@alexandersoderberg9734]

It's the proper pricing for each cake. She cannot possibly know the bulk prices at your store. Now, can she? Besides, the ingredients can be used for other things, at a later time. Or you just create a tonne of carrot cakes, where $1.25 will be a good estimate for the cost of each one. What a stupid complaint.

[@ashleybrittneyromeroratlif137]

+Alexander Soderberg AND YOU ARE!? NOBODY! NOBODY WAS TALKING TO ALEXANDER lol goodbye✋✌👊

[@anarios5517]

Ash RR im pretty sure the only reason she includes the " proper pricing" in every recipe is so it can look more affordable and attract more views. in reality no you will not be paying under $2 for this cake. this is useful if you're trying to sell the cakes but other than that and getting your attention the prices are unrealistic

[@eileennkim]

That last part was the best lol! Great video Nd recipe I can't wait to try! I LOVE carrot cake!

[@ashhughes8878]

Carrot-ter... anyone see what she did there???

[@clevercupcake]

I love your humor, keep them coming!

[@natisV13]

Cassey could you please do a video on stress eating? I'm usually ok but find it really hard to control myself when I'm studying. What can I eat to stop the anxiety?

[@great5567]

i hope this tastes good!!! i tried her pancakes and cookies.. but i didnt really like it.. but i ll give this one a try!! thanks cassey!!! can you make a video on how to make chocolate cake and browines? plzzz

[@Ballerinagirl127]

OMG I never realized how funny Cassey is!! lol

[@louisemelander4904]

just a quick tip u all gotta try when it comes to carrot cake, trough a good amount of lime (both west and juice) in that frosting! Makes WORLD of difference.

[@xBexX8]

Could you do a stocking your pantry video and tell us the basics that everyone should have in their kitchen.

[@TheUpdharmagirl]

Love this cheap clean eats series, Cassey! Thanks a lot! :D

[@ellaarets8801]

I found an explanation on wikipedia: "As Pumpkin Pie Spice (English pumpkin pie spice) refers to a spice mixture which is widely used in the United States. It is offered as standard in the commercial mixture. This combination contains: 2 parts ground nutmeg 1 part ground cloves 1 part ground ginger 1 part ground allspice 1 part ground cinnamon"

[@EmilyJewel143]

I just made this! Sooo good but I used agave instead of stevia and cinnamon instead of pumpkin pie spice and it was sensational :)))

[@superjunior912]

I seriously WANT your closet! All your outfits are so cute! ^_^

[@_annski_]

I'm so gonna make it this week!!!

[@heyammos]

You made it look very easy and fun. I think some of those ingredients are expensive in outside US. Thanks for inspiring me.

[@evelineboek]

Haha that was really funny with the banana! Those sounds :') and I love your videos!

[@christieeff]

love these videos! i'm gonna try substituting the almond flour for regular flour and stevia for sugar. i'm also just gonna buy regular cream cheese icing (oops) i hope it turns out good!

[@stardust1508]

Cassey, you are amazing. Gonna try this receipt soon!

[@watermelonsue1]

this is honestly AMAZING!!!

[@kristen2151]

love carrot cake and so want to try this, but idk about that frosting! im not a cream cheese fan and have never had tofu... do you think i could just skip the frosting and it would be fine?

[@tanyabernadino7103]

I LOVE YOUR OUTFITS EVERYTIME

[@VlairHuiTing]

OMG CARROT CAKE I LOVE YOU SO MUCH CASSEY!

[@IAmJessiYellow13]

The sound effects! haha Cassey I love you.

[@sillynjaky]

Pie, brownies, strawberry shortcake, chicken nuggets with dip!!! Lol a lot of suggestions to chose from

[@emileebbyxx]

this looks soo good. trying to figure out how i'd make the cake vegan...and confused on why the icing is already vegan :] excited to try this one!

[@dixieAQHA]

"While we wait, we dahhhhnce!"--> best part of the video, but the food looks yummy too!

[@carriegroppi3921]

That looks so yummy!! Can you make something that doesn't have the "hard to find" ingredients ? like almond flour, coconut sugar etc. Where I live it's not so easy to get those sorts of ingredients. Sweet or Savory, doesn't matter to me. Oh and can it be made in the microwave or in a waffle maker... cause thats all I have lol. Hope you can take this challenge. Love all your videos! Thanks for being AWESOME Cassey!!!

[@alleycatfire]

I'm really happy that you're doing this series, Cass! Feedback: consider changing how you price the goods. I can't buy a tsp of this/that so displaying the price for small servings of an item that one has to buy in "bulk" seems a tad glib. If I had none of these ingredients, I'd have to pay upward of $30 with the tofu products (in my area at least). Why not skip that part & stick with the yummy & clean eats?? Or add how much $ each item costs (baking powder: $2-$5, spices: $5, etc.)

[@xoaimayfizzle]

hahah i love all the sound effects

[@FannyAlaniss]

omg! i must try it! i also have to say, you made my night! thanks :D

[@MarianaVite]

did it!!

[@sarahgordon2597]

Love your creativity ! with food and exercise, and you didnt even go to vegan cooking school! You go girl!

[@Misscoolfinds]

This looks so yummy! i love carrot cake. i dont like doing dishes either. please make healthy version of anything chocolate

[@BookWormNerd101]

WHY HAVENT I HEARD OF PUMPKIN PIE SPICE UNTIL NOW!!!!! OMG I need to try that!

[@goblue44fyi]

because bananas are typically used to replace oil, you could use applesauce, pumpkin puree, or more yogurt. i haven't tried the suggestions with this recipe but feel free to give it a whirl.

[@TheNalaKitty]

I'm loving the sound effects

[@pigrickimmy]

i don't have a microwave- any suggestions for regular baking? I plan to make these as cupcakes for a healthy family breakfast.

[@annabelllu]

Your outfits are always so cute!!

[@InesAgnese]

That is carrotazing! While we wait - we DANCE! Love you Cassey, superpositive! :)

[@mah0817]

Thanks :) I might make it at home after a while because when I first had it it was from an Asian restaurant we live near. We'd eaten there before and I'd had the same dish but with chicken and had been fine every time before :/ Knowing what is in it and how it was prepared would probably make me feel better about eating it.

[@paulaflores7610]

its sooo yummy! can you please make a recipe of a low fat crema de fruta? coz i've been really craving for it and i keep on telling myself not to eat coz i've been really working hard these past few weeks. oh by the way i'm using your workout for begginers :)

[@sunnysummer8926]

Can you healthify brownies next?:) I've been obsessed with making them so I need a healthier alternative.And I see it's been highly requested,so you should do it!~

[@skiiiiiim]

You are opening the banana the right way. That is the correct way, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

[@annikadang7]

Cassey or someone who tried making this, is the frosting super sweet or perfect? Please tell me! Thanks!

[@CattyKittenQueen]

I love the sound effects!!

[@hello11158]

omg I LOVE CARROT CAKE so gonna try this!

[@jiujennie]

Wow! I love that dress, where did you get it? Or where do you buy your wardrobe?

[@pippanorthey5173]

I can't wait to try this :D I love your nails!

[@gabrielam9849]

What if I'm allergic to the egg yolk? Should I use a chia egg or 2 egg whites? Help please!

[@angelmic28]

APPLE PIEEEE

[@1Kakai11Maki1]

It's a healthy sugar substitute and you can find it on products like Equal or Splenda (I think so) :)

[@KionoLuv]

Whoa! Your dress is soo cute Cassey! ^-^ Also I have to try this recipe soon xD
