Carrot Pudding

This is adapted from the "Carrot Mousse Cake" at http://gapsguide.com/2008/12/11/a-week-of-winter-dinners/ . It is austere, but highly delicious if you have been off all refined carbohydrates for awhile and have really tasty, sweet carrots.

10 large carrots, steamed till soft
1/2-3/4 cup ghee
2-inch piece of peeled, chopped fresh ginger (1 tsp. powdered)
1 tbsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 tsp. salt
3 large eggs
Zest from a large organic lemon (optional)

Blend all ingredients in a vitamix or with a hand-held blender. Bake in a greased pan for about 60 minutes at 350f.

(If you add 1/4 cup of blanched almond flour and perhaps some dates, the texture will be stiffer (more like dense cake) and the taste sweeter)
