This worked out great! However, instead of using the strained carrots I used about 4 freshly shredded carrots because they have more flavor. Other than that, this was great :)

I used the pineapple, 1/2 cup coconut and cut back on the sugar to 1 1/4 cups and oil used 1 cup and 1/2 applesauce. I think this made it better!

Very delicious, just did not need 1.5 cups of oil. I used only half a cup, and half cup 1% milk and 4 whole carrots puréed in blender with a few tablespoons of water! Cream cheese frosting doubled and what a moist yummy cake!
