To get started with this particular recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can cook carrot cake using 12 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you cook it.

The ingredients needed to make Carrot cake:
  1. Get 2 cups flour
  2. Prepare 2 teaspoons baking soda

In a mixing bowl, mix sugar, vegetable oil, and eggs. In another bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon. I like using all-purpose flour, but you can substitute some of the all-purpose flour for whole wheat or white whole wheat flour.

  1. Mix oil, sugars & eggs one at a time in a bowl and whisk until combined.
  2. Mix other dry ingredients in a bowl.

  4. Add carrots and raisins.
  5. Divide batter into two, grease two 9" pans and bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  6. Cool & decorate with icing of choice (I used ermine buttercream), garnish with carrots.
  8. You can serve plain too. Enjoy.

For a gluten-free carrot cake, swap the flour for your favorite gluten-free flour blend. Baking soda helps the cake to rise. Salt, cinnamon, and vanilla extract make the cake taste amazing. Oil keeps the cake nice and moist — any neutral flavored oil will work. While some recipe historians trace the roots of carrot cake back to medieval times, we disagree.
