Steps

1

In a bowl, whisk all the dry ingredients. The flour lightly coats the nuts and carrots, preventing them from sinking to the bottom of the cake batter during baking.
2

In another large bowl, whisk the wet ingredients.
3

Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and, using a rubber, fold the ingredients together until just combined.
4

Pour/spoon the batter evenly into the cake pan. Bake for 60 minutes at 170°C. Test the center with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.

Enjoy!
