A basic carrot cake recipe I’ve had for many years passed down by my grandma.
Ingredients (makes 1 Cake)
- 1 cup Self raising flour
- 1 cup Plain flour
- 2 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp Ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp Ground nutmeg
- 1 tsp Bicarb of Soda
- 1 cup Oil
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 4 Eggs
- 1/2 cup Golden Syrup
- 2 1/2 cups Grated carrot
- 1/2 cup Chopped walnuts
Method
- Preheat oven to 160 degrees celcius. Brush a deep cake pan with melted butter or oil.
- Sift together the flours and bicarb of soda in large bowl, add the cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg stir to combine. Make a well in the centre.
- Whisk together the oil, sugar, eggs and syrup in a jug until combined. Gradually stir this mixture into the dry ingredients, stir until smooth.
- Stir in the carrots and nuts. Spoon the mixture into a prepared tin smoothing the surface.
- Bake for 1 1/2 hours or until a skewer comes out clean when inserted.
Notes
Pecans can be added. Icing would also be lovely however it's a bit healthier without.
