Maple Carrot Cake

Since I wanted to eat a nutritious cake full of carrots, I baked it with all of my favorite ingredients.
The amount of ingredients are rough approximations. This recipe uses a moderate amount of sugar and oil, so that you can appreciate the sweetness of the carrot. Be sure to use a lot of cinnamon. For loaf pan: 18 x 8 x 6 cm [7 x 3 1/4 x 2 1/4 in]. Recipe by creamcrepe

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Sift together the ☆ dry ingredients. Finely mince the carrots in a food processor, then roast and rough chop the walnuts. Rough chop the raisins, too.
- 2
Use a whisk to blend the egg, sugar, and maple syrup. Add the carrot, raisins, and walnuts and stir. Add the olive oil and stir.
- 3
Fold in the dry ingredients with a spatula until even. Pour into a pound cake mold lined with parchment paper and bake for 40 minutes in an oven preheated to 180°C.
- 4
After it cools, wrap it in plastic wrap, put it in a plastic bag, and let it sit overnight. It will become rich, moist, and delicious.
- 5
Although it is hard to see, I used prunes instead of raisins for the cake in the photo. It's also yummy that way.
- 6
You can also use a round cake mold. I also suggest using almond powder. For that, change to 50 g cake flour, 15 g whole wheat flour, and 10 g almond powder.

I actually made this cake for Valentine's day. I mean Valentine's day is too overfilled with chocolate and heart shapes. Sometimes we just need a simple cake like this. Unlike all the carrot cakes which I'd tasted, there're actually carrots in this cake. Those commercial cakes are usually filled with food coloring and artificial flavorings. To make the cake worse, they used over-sugary cream cheese fillings which kinda make the cakes unbearable to eat, IMHO.As you should have known, I am not a fan of cakes. So, if I have to eat a cake, it has to be my way; dense, moist, fudgy and custardy without over the top sweetness or frosting. Bruno Albouze seems to have what I am looking for. Head over to his YouTube channel for gorgeous desserts, cakes and dishes. Subscribe to his channel too.I decided to decorate my cake with some bits and pieces of honeycomb. There are a few names to call the honeycomb: honeycomb toffee, hokey pokey or cinder toffee. It is like a science experiment when the baking soda is added. I also decided to keep my cake 100% vegan, cos it is one of my goals for 2019; to push out at least 1 vegan recipe a week. In closing, I really hope you will give this recipe a try. I know I am late tho, but this cake will sit well on any dining table without any special occasion. Daniel Lim -

Carrot Cake Carrot Cake
When I was living in England, I received this spiced carrot cake numerous times during the Christmas season. I got a friend to teach me the recipe. The original version was sweeter, but I took the liberty of reducing the sugar and oil, but for the most-part the steps and ingredients are true to the original.Generally speaking, if you use margarine rather than butter, there is no need to add salt.In Step 1 when sifting the dry ingredients, exclude the almond powder.In Step 6, the longer the batter rests, the richer and tastier it becomes. It's okay to let it rest for 2 or 3 days. Recipe by tora-mame. (One 18 cm diameter cake.) cookpad.japan -

Carrot cake was my mother’s favorite cake. I can remember being four years old and peeling carrots and licking the batter off of the spoon. My father always had something to say about the raw eggs, but my mother didn’t care. Haha, I survived!! Anyway, I got this lamb mold and I wanted to try it out, so I made a carrot cake. This will of course work with any pan. Karl -

Carrot Cake Carrot Cake
My parents worked hard from a young age until their last days. Mom wasn't a whiz in the kitchen, but when she took the time, the little or much she prepared was truly amazing. This dessert was made with boxed cake mix and store-bought frosting, adding a few ingredients to make it truly exquisite and delicate. She was so creative in presenting her dishes that almost no one believed she made them with her own hands! I cherish this photo because we made this cake together about 4 years ago, and I'm very comforted to share the recipe with you. KARLA CARDENASTranslated from Cookpad Mexico -

It's said that this cake doesn't have the raw taste of carrots, so I wanted to try it out. It turned out to be quite delicious, and the addition of brown sugar gives it a great flavor.TipsFor the vegetable oil, I used sunflower oil (it's suggested online not to use olive oil as the flavor would be too strong). You can use butter, but vegetable oil is a bit healthier.Tasting NotesThe carrot cake with the caramelized flavor of brown sugar doesn't have any of the raw carrot taste. 粉圓Translated from Cookpad Taiwan -

I ate this often while living in Canada. I wanted to try to make it myself, so I found a recipe on an American recipe site, used ingredients that I had on hand, and decreased the sugar and oil.The nuts and dried fruits are optional.I added maple syrup for extra flavor, but it's also optional.I added rum to the icing, but vanilla also works well.
