I have made this 3 times so far. 1st try was dry but I used too much flour. I now stick w/3cups flour, 1cup crushed pineapple, 2 cups grated baby carrots (I use a blender on low setting). 3/4 cup golden rasins (soaked overnight in spiced rum) 1tsp Ginger & 1tsp nutmeg. 13x9 pan and watch the magic happen.
