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 get started with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can cook carrot cake using 7 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Carrot cake:
  1. Make ready 3 Carrot - (Do not boil)
  2. Get 3 Egg -
  3. Make ready 3/4 cup Vegetable oil -
  4. Prepare 1 tspn Vanilla essence -
  5. Take 2 cup All purpose flour -
  6. Make ready 1 cup + 3 tbspn Powdered sugar -
  7. Make ready 1 tbspn Baking powder -

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.

Steps to make Carrot cake:
  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degree.
  2. Grease the cake pan with butter and all purpose flour. Keep it ready.
  3. In a blender, add carrot, vegetable oil, vanilla essence and egg. Grind it to a fine paste. Keep it aside.
  4. In a bowl, add all purpose flour, powdered sugar and baking powder. Combine well.
  5. Add the carrot mix into the flour and combine slowly.
  6. Pour the cake batter to the prepared cake pan and spread evenly. Tap it (tapping the pan releases large air bubbles).
  7. Bake it in the preheated oven for about 35 - 45 minutes (check by inserting toothpick at the centre of cake, if it comes out clean, the cake is done).
  8. Remove the cake pan from the oven and cool it completely.  - Serve it with hot coffee or tea.

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.
