To get started with this recipe, we must prepare a few components. You can cook moist carrot cake using 15 ingredients and 11 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.

I made it to a T the first time, and the cake was good but a bit oily. Carrots, crushed pineapple, cinnamon, and nutmeg give this carrot cake that classic taste. I know everyone likes their carrot cake made differently but this version stole my heart. In a large bowl, beat the sugars, oil, eggs and vanilla until well blended.
Instructions to make Moist Carrot Cake:
- Peel and grate 100 g worth of a carrot. Preheat oven to 180℃.
- Combine ◎ ingredients and sift. (※You could use cake flour instead of whole wheat. Add spices if you prefer). Line the cups or pan with parchment paper.
- Beat eggs in a bowl. Add sugar, salt, maple syrup, vegetable oil, heavy cream, and rum (※use milk when serving to children) in that order. Mix with each addition.
- Add the grated carrots into the bowl.
- Then add the ◎ ingredients into the bowl. Using a rubber spatula, mix together using gentle cutting motions.
- Pour the batter into the cups or pan. Transfer to a baking tray and bake for 30 minutes in a preheated oven.
- Cool on a cake rack. (You could also wrap them with plastic wrap, put into freeze-safe ziplock bags, and keep in the freezer for later.)
- Mix all ☆ ingredients for the icing. If you want the icing to harden quickly, reduce the amount of lemon juice.
- When the cakes are completely cooled down, pour the icing over them. Sprinkle on some dragées if you wish. Leave the icing to harden, and they're done.
- Note: Here's the carrot I used. Since I had nothing else to compare it to, I placed an 80 g container of parmesan cheese. This size was just about 100 g net weight.
- Note: The sweetness of the batter is reduced to balance out the sweetness of the icing. If you're not making the icing, increase the sugar in the batter to 40 g. It will only by subtly sweet if you use 30 g, so it's up to you.
Combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt and baking soda; gradually beat into sugar mixture until blended. Carrot Cake with butter instead of oil: A fat is necessary to keep cakes moist and tender. While butter is sometimes used as the fat in mild cakes (like yellow, white or pound cakes), a flavorless oil like canola or vegetable oil is best for carrot cakes. The carrot cake gets its flavor from the other ingredients — like the carrots and spices. This one layer carrot cake is super moist, wonderfully spiced, and perfect for smaller gatherings and celebrations.
