CARROT HARVEST CAKE
2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups grated carrots
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups grated carrots
1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup moist, plump golden raisins or dried cranberries
2 cups sugar
1 cup canola oil
4 large eggs
1 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup moist, plump golden raisins or dried cranberries
2 cups sugar
1 cup canola oil
4 large eggs
Whisk the flour, baking powder,
baking soda, cinnamon and salt. In another bowl, stir together the carrots,
chopped nuts, coconut, and raisins.
Working with a stand mixer,
preferably fitted with a paddle attachment, or with a hand mixer in a large
bowl, beat the sugar and oil together on a medium speed until smooth. Add the
eggs one by one and continue to beat until the batter is even smoother. Reduce
the speed to low and add the flour mixture, mixing only until the dry
ingredients disappear. Gently mix the chunky ingredients. Divide the batter
among the baking pans.
Bake for 40-50 minutes, rotating
the pans from top to bottom and front to back at the midway point, until a thin
knife inserted into the centers comes out clean. The cakes will have just started
to come away from the sides of the pans. Transfer the cakes to cooling racks
and cool for about 5 minutes, then run a knife around the sides of the cakes
and unmold them. Invert and cool to room temperature right side up.
The cakes can be wrapped airtight
and kept at room temperature overnight or frozen for up to 2 months.
I look forward to your posts daily. Such beautiful photos. That cake....must make.
