Recipe: at dinner Carrot Cake Delicious, fresh and tasty.

Carrot Cake. My fiance LOVES carrot cake, and yesterday was his birthday so I decided to look for a carrot cake recipe. He was very specific that he wanted pineapple, coconut and lots of nuts in his carrot cake. I made this cake with a few modifications and he LOVES it!

Add the eggs, oil, carrots and vanilla; beat until combined.

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!!

You can have Carrot Cake using 9 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you cook that.

  1. You need of brown sugar (unrefined cane sugar).

  2. Prepare of sunflower oil.

  3. You need of large eggs (lightly beaten).

  4. Prepare of carrots (grated).

  5. You need of dried fruit (raisins/prunes/cranberry).

  6. It’s of zest of 1 orange (graded).

In a mixing bowl, mix sugar, vegetable oil, and eggs.

In another bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

Carrot cake is moist, rich in flavor and melts in your mouth!

  2. In a large bowl put sugar, sunflower oil and beaten eggs. Mix with a wooden spoon. Stir in grated carrots, dried fruit (I used chopped prunes as I dont like raisins) and grated orange zest..

  3. Add flour, baking soda and cinnamon. Mix everything together, the mixture will be soft and almost runny..

  4. Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 40-45 minutes..

  5. Allow the cake to cool before serving. You can top it with icing or just sprinkle some icing sugar..

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.
