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!
To begin with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few components. You can have carrot cake using 13 ingredients and 2 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Carrot Cake:
- Get For the carrot cake:
- Prepare 170 g dark brown sugar
- Prepare 2 Eggs
- Get 150 ml vegetable oil
- Get 3 medium sized carrots peeled and grated
- Get 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- Get 1/2 tsp ground ginger

- Prepare 50 g sultanas
- Take For the frosting:

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

For a gluten-free carrot cake, swap the flour for your favorite gluten-free flour blend. Baking soda helps the cake to rise.
Instructions to make Carrot Cake:
- Preheat the oven to 180 oC - Grease and line a 7" round cake tin - In a large bowl mix together the brown sugar, vegetable oil and eggs - Stir in the grated carrot, ginger, cinnamon, flour and sultanas - Pour the mixture into the cake tin - Bake in the oven for 40 minutes
- Remove from the cake tin and allow to cool before frosting - Beat together the dairy free spread, dairy free cream cheese and icing sugar - Spread on top of the cake and dust with a little extra ground cinnamon
Salt, cinnamon, and vanilla extract make the cake taste amazing. Oil keeps the cake nice and moist — any neutral flavored oil will work. In a mixing bowl, mix sugar, vegetable oil, and eggs. In another bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. While some recipe historians trace the roots of carrot cake back to medieval times, we disagree.
