I prefer courgette cake to carrot cake - but then carrot cake often has cinnamon in.
Agree that veg in cakes to use up a glut is what they're best for.

I love carrot cake, courgette cake, banana bread *and* cinnamon... maybe I’m just odd but fruit/veg cakes are the best! I’ve yet to try beetroot cake though, with that recipe maybe I will...

I did a parsnip and coconut cake from Leon once for work and nobody identified the veg. I’ve not yet felt brave enough to try Anna Jones brownies with a tin of black beans.

I love black bean brownies (and I stick dates in them too) Also like beetroot choc cakes but draw the line at banana ANYTHING. Each to their own obvs!

Vegetables in cakes/ sweet things is not new! Granulated sugar is much more recent.

Desecrated (dad's malapropism that stuck) coconut is another on my list of ways to ruin a cake.
