Silvana's Kitchen Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour; 1 tsp. baking powder; 1/2 tsp. baking soda; 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon; 1/4 tsp. salt; 1 c. light brown sugar; 1/4 c. sour cream; 4 tbsp. unsalted butter; 1 large egg; 2 tsp. pure vanilla extract; 2 medium carrots; 1/2 c. walnuts; 1 c. heavy cream; 2 tbsp. confectioners' sugar; 1/4 c. whipped cream cheese; warm maple syrup

Step 1Preheat oven to 200 degrees F and set a rack in a rimmed baking sheet. In a medium bowl, whisk flour with baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

Step 2In a large bowl, whisk brown sugar with sour cream, butter, egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Using a wooden spoon, stir in dry ingredients, then stir in carrots and walnuts.
