Recently, I made a carrot cake and I thought to share the recipe here. I have made a few times and the result is not consistent. Below is the recipe that I think has got a better result. It is not perfect yet. So maybe i will update it here if there is any improvement the next time I make it again.
Ingredients:
Wet ingredients
180 ml vegetable oil
1/3 orange juice & zest
3 eggs
Dry ingredients (combine all in one bowl, mix well)
230 g plain flour
235 g sugar
10 g baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
1/2 tsp mix spice
pinch of salt
200 g carrot (grated)
60 g walnut (chopped)
60 g raisin
Method:
1. First is to grease the 2 baking loaf pan size 20 x 10 x 6 cm with some vegetable oil. Preheat oven at 175C.
2. Start off by mixing the wet ingredients. Into a big mixing bowl, put in the vegetable oil, zest in a third of an orange and juice it. Then with a hand mixer, mix in 1 egg at the time. Then add rest of the eggs.
3. Pour in the half of the dry ingredients. Mix well then pour the other half.
4. After the batter is well combined, use a spatula to fold in the grated carrot, chopped walnut and raisin. Then pour the batter into the loaf pan.
4. After the batter is well combined, use a spatula to fold in the grated carrot, chopped walnut and raisin. Then pour the batter into the loaf pan.
5. Bake in the oven for at least 45 minutes. Rotate it after 30 minutes.
6. When a pairing knife inserted comes out clean, it means the cake is ready. If not, bake for another 10-15 minutes.
7. Remove from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes so that it is easier to handle. Remove cake from the loaf pan and let it cool completely on a cooling rack.
PART 2: THE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
Ingredients:
250 g cream cheese (room temperature)
25 g butter (room temperature)
42 g icing sugar
few drops of vanilla essence
Method:
Combine everything and mix well.
PART 3: FINISHING TOUCH
So after the cake is cooled down completely and the cream cheese is done, it is up to us to decorate and put it all together. Finally, we can put some garnishing on top (like some nuts or whatever you like or have on hand) as a finishing touch.
