My boyfriend's mom introduced me to Sam's Famous Carrot Cake online. However, I'm constantly on the search to decrease the sugar in my recipes. These are moist with a nice carrot flavor. Feel free to omit the walnuts and/or raisins.

Steps

1 hour 15 mins

1

Place raisins in a bowl with the pineappe, Let soak for at least an hour. Toast walnuts either in the oven or on stove until fragrant. Finely grate carrots.
2

Preheat oven to 375F/190C and prepare your tins. In a bowl, add flour, soda, spices, and salt and whisk to combine.
3

In another bowl, mix the eggs and sugars on medium speed for about 5 minutes or until the mix is pale and double in volume. Add in the oil and vanilla.
4

Alternate the buttermilk with the flour mixture, reserving a bit of flour to dust the walnuts with. Add the carrot and raisins and mix. Add the walnuts and last of the flour until just combined. Spoon into tins.
5

This recipe actually made 24 cupcakes, 6 egg shaped individual cakes, and two 6" round layers. Omitting the walnuts and/or raisins will give you less.
6

Bake for 15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with dry crumbs.

These get better the next day so make a batch up ahead of time and make your frosting day of.
