Carrot Cake Recipe

Ingredients

For the Cake

2½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
½ tsp salt
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
4 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups finely grated carrots
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

For the Cream Cheese Frosting

250g cream cheese
½ cup unsalted butter
3 cups icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 175°C and grease two 8-inch cake pans.

In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

In another large bowl, mix oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.

Fold in grated carrots and chopped walnuts.

Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until combined. Do not overmix.

Divide batter evenly into the cake pans and bake for 30–35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Allow cakes to cool completely before frosting.

For the frosting, beat cream cheese and butter until creamy. Add icing sugar gradually and mix until fluffy. Stir in vanilla extract.

Layer and frost the cake generously. Decorate with chopped walnuts and shredded carrots if desired.
