Whole Wheat Carrot Cake

Preheat oven to 350F.

Mix apple sauce and maple syrup in a medium bowl. Then add eggs, vanilla and carrots.

Mix in salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.

Add baking soda and baking powder. It is important to add these ingredients separate from the rest but just before the flour as they will give your batter some air bubbles.

Add the flour. Once it is completely mixed in, add the apricots and sunflower seeds.

Pour the batter into a greased tin and bake for 1 hour.
