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 recipe, we have to prepare a few components. You can cook carrot cake using 10 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook it.

The ingredients needed to make Carrot Cake:
  1. Make ready 2.5 cups Refined Flour
  2. Make ready 1 cup Brown Sugar
  3. Take 2 tsp Cinnamon
  4. Get 2 tsp Nutmeg
  5. Get 1 cup Refined Oil
  6. Get 4 no. Eggs
  7. Take 1 cup Buttermilk
  8. Get 3 cups Grated Carrots
  9. Make ready 1 tsp Baking Soda
  10. Make ready 1 cup Chopped Walnuts (optional)

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.

Instructions to make Carrot Cake:
  1. Grease the cake pan/muffin cups.
  2. Sift refined flour, soda, spice and sugar into a bowl. Add carrots, stir in combined oil, eggs, buttermilk and nuts (if using). Do not over mix.
  3. Spread mixture into the prepared pan.
  4. Bake in pre heated oven for 40-50 minutes at 170° C.
  5. Test cake by inserting a skewer into the centre of the cake. If cooked, skewer will come out clean, if there is moist cake mixture on the skewer, return to the oven for a further 10 minutes before testing again.
  6. Stand the cake for 5 minutes before turning onto a wire rack.

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.
