This recipe for carrot cake is very easy to make! You only need a couple of bowls and the ability to mix ingredients together. Simply combine all the ingredients together as shown in the recipe instructions.
To make things easy, I mix the dry ingredients together in one bowl and the wet ingredients together in another. I whisk the dry ingredients until they are well blended and then do the same for the wet ingredients.
Next, I use a rubber spatula or large spoon to gently fold the wet and dry ingredients together. I continue folding until there are no large streaks of flour visible.
Once the batter is prepared, I add the carrots, and sometimes the nuts and raisins if I choose to use them. I gently fold them into the batter until they are well mixed.
HOW TO BAKE THE CAKE
To bake the carrot cake, put the batter in two buttered and floured cake pans and bake them until they are ready. They usually take around 35 to 40 minutes to bake, and the smell is amazing. After they are baked, let them cool down before adding your favorite frosting on top.
FROSTING THE CAKE
We really like our creamy cream cheese frosting. It’s soft and stays creamy, unlike some frostings that get hard.
If you don’t like frosting or don’t have the ingredients for it, you can try the cake without any frosting. Another option is to sprinkle a little powdered sugar on top. When My husband and I were testing the recipe, we tried the cake without frosting and we loved it just as it was.
