Carrot Date and Walnut Cake

Given to me by a friend...I call it my flop-proof recipe. Always turns out delicious.

The cake is perfectly moist and delicious. You will love this lightly spiced carrot cake as fresh carrots give a perfect blend to the cake with nutmeg and cinnamon.

Chi ha detto che in vista delle feste natalizie non si può preparare un dolce diverso dal solito e più leggero? È un dolce adatto comunque in qualsiasi periodo dell'anno. La particolarità di questo dolce è la presenza della farina integrale, delle carote e di un miele dal gusto davvero avvolgente, il miele di ailanto prodotto dal mio ragazzo, apicoltore da circa 3 anni e mezzo.L'ailanto è un tipo di pianta che fiorisce subito dopo l'acacia. La sua essenza è spesso presente nei millefiori estivi. È di origine cinese, ma ormai presente in gran parte d'Italia.Il miele di ailanto fa parte della famiglia dei mieli rari e pregiati, ha un colore chiaro ambrato, dal sapore molto dolce. Ha proprietà antinfiammatorie, antibiotiche e antiossidanti. Perfetto per la realizzazione di qualsiasi dolce. Buonissimo anche sui formaggi tipo pecorino e formaggi al tartufo e al pistacchio. Da provare!!! 😍#cookpaditalia #incucinaconcookpad #calendariodicembre

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.

My favorite recipe of carrot cake is the one developed by America’s Test Kitchen. Unlike the usual “dump and stir” method, this version creates a dessert that is layered, moist, tangy, and glamorous.

簡單容易上手的傳統美式蛋糕，會顛覆對於紅蘿蔔的印象。若手邊有堅果亦可加入，增加口感外味道也會更豐富。#金廚獎

My oldest daughter is not a fan of cake but loves when we have this carrot cake! She even wants it for her upcoming fall wedding!

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.

Enjoy the flavor of carrots! It’s sweet.

Seriously the best. Mom always makes this recipe and everyone everywhere raves about it.

When I used to live in Dubai, I loved Lime Tree's carrot cake. So after I moved, whenever I miss carrot cake, I use this recipe to bake my own.

For mommy who wanna give healthy desert for their lovely children..

Simple and yummy :hungry

Mis padres desde muy jóvenes trabajaron duro hasta el último de sus días. Mamá no era un As en la cocina, sin embargo, cuando se tomaba un tiempo, lo poco o mucho que llegaba a preparar era realmente sorprendente.Este postre lo hacía con harina preparada para pastel y con betún comercial, añadiendo uno que otro ingrediente resultaba algo realmente exquisito y delicado.Además, era tan ocurrente para presentar sus platos que... ¡casi nadie le creía que lo había hecho con sus propias manitas!.Esta foto la conservo con mucho amor porque este pastel lo hicimos juntas hace unos 4 años y me es muy reconfortante compartirles la receta.

This is the best carrot cake recipe I have, my family loves it!

Questa è una torta che io amo, adatta a colorare le nostre tavole con i colori vivaci dei suoi ingredienti #semplicementepasqua

如果做一個，分量減一半！

Pastel de cumpleaños de mi mamá 😍

Like most women, I love all that is sweet but I sometimes feel quite guilty when eating large quantities. It's like I can't have just one piece and I believe many of you feel the same way I do. In this recipe I used a very small amount of oil and less sugar than in the original one so feel free to have not one, not two, but as many pieces of this cake as you like! Also, it's a very quick and tasty desert you can make when you don't have a lot of time to spend in the kitchen so when you're in a hurry and you're craving something sweet, this is the recipe for you. Have fun making it! I’d love to see all your beautiful photos, so feel free to post them and don’t forget to leave a comment!

love it
