Simple Carrot Cake

Description

Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. This incredibly simple and delicious carrot cake requires little effort to prepare, and its flavor and aroma will draw your family and loved ones straight to the kitchen. Moist and sweet, this cake rivals much more complex pastries in taste, such as the traditional British cake. Thanks to the small amount of sugar in the recipe, this dessert can also be included in a diet-friendly menu. Instead of carrots, you can use pumpkin—the taste will be different but equally delightful. Serve with tea or coffee.

Instructions

2. 2

   Step 2

   Add eggs and a small amount of vegetable oil to the carrots. Blend in a blender until smooth.

3. 3

   Step 3

   In a separate bowl, combine all the dry ingredients.

4. 4

   Add all the ingredients to the carrot mixture. Depending on the juiciness of the carrots, you may need more flour. The dough should have a consistency similar to sour cream.

5. 5

   Step 5

   Line the baking pan with parchment paper, pour in the batter, and bake in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 60 minutes. After 30 minutes in the oven, remove the pan and make a cut in the center of the batter to ensure even baking. Check the cake for doneness using a matchstick or toothpick. If no batter sticks to it, the cake is ready.
