  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to incorporate fully.
  5. Stir in the vanilla extract and milk (or water) until the mixture is uniform.
  6. In a separate bowl, sift together the AM Multi Blend Flour, baking powder, sea salt, cinnamon, and carob powder.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined and no dry streaks remain.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  9. Sprinkle chopped nuts over the batter if desired.
  10. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
