2 cups raisins
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Soak raisins in warm water and let stand 5 minutes; drain in a colander. (Use paper towel to blot out excess water).
Beat sweetener, egg, and egg whites together. Slowly add corn oil.
Sift together flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves; add to "sugar" mixture.
Combine ginger, nuts, coconut, apples, carrots, and raisins. Add to batter and mix well on slow speed until just combined.
Pour into two 9" cake pans coated with cooking spray and flour or a 9"x13" pan. Bake 55 minutes for 9" pans, 45 for 9"x13" or until done. Cool.
Frost assembled cake with remainder. Decorate with walnut halves.
Poster's Notes:
I decreased the amount of walnuts and coconut flakes; it was 1/2 cup of each.
