Carrot cake. Different from traditional carrot cakes, this cake is extremely moist and flavorful and is topped with a buttermilk glaze while still warm. Try it and I think you will agree that it is the best!! My fiance LOVES carrot cake, and yesterday was his birthday so I decided to look for a carrot cake recipe.
Says that it rivals his favorite carrot cake recipe. In a mixing bowl, mix sugar, vegetable oil, and eggs. In another bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. You can cook Carrot cake using 8 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you cook that.
Ingredients of Carrot cake
- It's 3 cups of all purpose flour.
- You need 6 of eggs.
- Prepare 3 tsp of baking powder.
- You need 3/4 cup of sugar (though still found it too sweet).
- Prepare 1/2 cup of olive oil.
- You need 500 ml of milk(just use enough).
- You need 1 cup of grated carrots.
- Prepare of Vanilla flavour (optional).
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Add the eggs, oil, carrots and vanilla; beat until combined. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon. Carrot cake is moist, rich in flavor and melts in your mouth!
Carrot cake step by step
- Beat eggs in a bowl, mix with sugar and stir well..
- Beat in the oil and mix well using a hand mixer.
- Add the vanilla, about 2tsp, baking powder and sieve in the flour. Mix well using the mixer.
- Then add the milk gradually until you have a smooth dough not runny and not thick..
- Fold in the grated carrots and pour the dough in an already greased baking tin or sufuria. (I cover mine with foil paper to prevent it from burning before it is ready).
- Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180° for about an hour or so.
- Check whether your cake is ready by inserting a tooth pick inside, if it comes out clean then your cake is ready if not be sure to add more time for the cake to cook well..
This scrumptious dessert is what everyone will be raving about! This truly is one of the best carrot cake recipes alone with whole wheat carrot cake bread, frosted carrot cake cookies or carrot cake cupcakes. All my carrot cake recipes are made with fresh carrots, the perfect blend of spices and a sweet, heavenly frosting! I like using all-purpose flour, but you can substitute some of the all-purpose flour for whole wheat or white whole wheat flour. For a gluten-free carrot cake, swap the flour for your favorite gluten-free flour blend.
