Gluten-free Carrot Streusel Cake

This carrot cake recipe was my grandmother's. She used to make it in a large sheet pan and everyone loved it, so making this cake gluten free was a no-brainer for me. The brown sugar topping is delicious and perfect if you aren't a fan of icing. It is great with a steaming, hot cup of coffee in the morning...who doesn't love cake for breakfast.

This cake bakes up quickly and easily. I don't know about you, but this is the only carrot cake I know of that uses boiled and mashed carrots. I guess Grandma was a trendsetter. Once the carrots are ready, just mix up the batter, sprinkle on your glorious walnut topping, and drizzle with melted butter. Sweet cake perfection.
