Notes
Tip
This is a wonderful recipe it's so easy, you really can let your kids make it from beginning to end. You only need to be on hand to do the oven stuff!
Variation
If you can't find (or don't have!) rice bran oil, you can replace it with another vegetable oil I really like to use grapeseed oil.
Variation
Some people don't like to mix their fruits and veggies (!) so if you feel uncomfortable adding pineapple to a Carrot Cake, just leave it out. The cake will still be moist, even if it is missing a little of the extra sweetness that the pineapple gives.
