Kiana's Protein Carrot Cake – No refined sugar! Healthy, easy, and all-natural! ?? I saw this viral recipe on Tik Tok. I decided to try It and make a few modifications: make protein frosting, added protein to the batter, unsweetened coconut, maple syrup and toasted pecans. Next time I will pump it up and add another scoop of protein and make more protein frosting!
