Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius. Grease and flour your baking tin or coat it with baking spray. I used the tin below👇🏾👇🏾
2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until combined and smooth. Add in the eggs and vanilla, and whisk until smooth
3

In another separate bowl, whisk together the remaining dry ingredients (flour, baking powder and soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt) until combined.
4

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the egg mixture and stir until smooth.
5

Fold in the grated carrots and stir until combined
6

If you would like to add nuts and/ or raisins, stir them in at this time as well
7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking tin and bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean
8

Transfer the baking tin to a wire cooling rack and let the cakes cool until they reach room temperature.
9

Serve as a desert, snack or have it for breakfast 😊
