3 cups (1 lb) finely grated carrots

3/4 cup vegetable oil

3 large eggs

1/2 cup pecan pieces

Cheesecake:

3 x 8oz packages of cream cheese, softened

2/3 cup sour cream

2/3 cup granulated sugar

3 large eggs

Pinch of Xanthan Gum

1 teaspoon lemon zest

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Sour Cream Frosting:

1 1/2 cups confectioners sugar

2 tablespoons sour cream

1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

pinch of salt.

Carrot Cake: Preheat oven to 350F. Combine vegetable oil, eggs and carrot cake mix. Beat until smooth. Add carrots and pecan pieces, stir until evenly incorporated. Pour batter into greased springform pan.

Bake for 45-55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool completely on a rack, in the pan, before moving onto the next step.

Cheesecake: Preheat oven to 350F. Beat the cream cheese, sour cream and granulated sugar in a stand mixer (using a paddle attachment) until smooth and creamy (approximately 5 minutes). Make sure to scrape the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the flour, xanthan gum, lemon zest, lemon juice and vanilla for about 1 minute.

Pour the cheesecake mixture over the carrot cake. Wrap the bottom and sides of the pan with a large piece of foil. Place in a roasting pan or large baking dish and fill halfway up the sides of the cake pan with water.

Bake until the cheesecake is pale yellow, approximately 1 hour. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake rest in the hot oven for 30 minutes. Remove, run a sharp knife around the edge and let cool completely on a rack. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
