Blender Carrot Cake (baked in a Portable Convection Oven)
My oven has not been working since early this week and I thought I’d try baking in my Sunbeam portable convection oven. With bits and pieces of what I knew about convection ovens I baked this cake by first preheating the oven at a slightly higher temperature (20 degree Celsius high) than what I’d knowing use on my conventional oven. Then I lowered the temperature down to normal (180C) once the cake batter was transferred into the oven to bake. It also helps to take the cake out 5 or 10 minutes earlier than you would as convection ovens generally bake faster and leaving your cake in there too long will dry it up.
I must say that I loved the results and will definitely be trying out more cake recipes in my portable convection oven soon.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat portable convection oven to 200C for 20 minutes. Line with parchment a baking tin that fits into your oven. I used a 9” round tin
- 2
Gather ingredients. Into your high speed blender, blitz to a smooth consistency the carrots, vegetable oil, sugar and eggs
- 3
Pour blended mixture into a mixing bowl. Sift together the flour and baking powder then in two additions sift it into the wet carrot mixture
- 4
Using a manual whisk, gradually mix in the flour only until combined. Do not over-mix. Pour mixture into prepared pan as evenly as possible
- 5
Open preheated oven and using the package tongs, put in the low rack and use the same tongs to lower in the pan with the cake batter. Do work with speed to prevent losing most of the heat. Close oven lid and lower the heat to 180C. Set timer at 30 minutes and keep a watchful eye on your cake
- 6
Once the timer goes off, your oven also goes off. Check that the cake is ready by piercing with a skewer. Set hot lid over a thick kitchen towel to prevent any damage to your countertop. Leave cake to cool for a few minutes before taking it off the pan
- 7
Dust slightly cooled cake with powdered sugar
- 8
Enjoy with a hot beverage or milk! 🤤

Carrot Cake Carrot Cake
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.

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!

Carrot Cake Made Easy Carrot Cake Made Easy
I have loved carrot cake all my life and I had never made it until recently. However, I created this recipe by researching several carrot cake recipes. After understanding how most people make carrot cake I set out to make up my own recipe. I experimented with different combinations of ingredients and I added some ingredients that are not typically found in carrot cake. The end result was a very moist tasty carrot cake.

Fluffy Carrot Cake - Like a Fruit Cake! Fluffy Carrot Cake - Like a Fruit Cake!
I made this because I had a lot of carrots!Be sure to mix by scooping up from the bottom in Steps 3-5. If you continue mixing the batter until it's smooth, the cake will come out fluffy.You can make this by using muffin cups or a pound cake pan too! Please be sure to add lemon juice! It will improve the color of the cake. For one 18-21 cm [7.1-8.3 in] diameter cake. Recipe by Chugakusei kitchen

Carrot Cake Using A Whole Carrot Carrot Cake Using A Whole Carrot
I arranged the carrot cake recipe from "Baking Class," a book published by Shufu to Seikatsu-sha.This cake has lots of carrot and a small amount of oil; perfect for my daughter!The carrot should be 150-160 g after you remove the stem and peel. It is no problem if the amount is slightly more or less.I was interested in grapeseed oil. It has zero cholesterol, so it's healthy! I recommend it! For 10 small molds. Recipe by Chipetan -

Carrot Cake Carrot Cake
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.
