BEST Carrot Cake Recipe

[@SmileKat6810]

i made your first carrot cake recipe back in january for my boyfriends bday (he was absolutely blown away) and now i’m making him this recipe bc he begged me to make him another one. perfect timing!

[@liferockedmelikemotley]

Awwww lucky boyfriend!! Mine has been begging for the lemon cheesecake 😂

[@brendamendez6152]

Thank u ! U answer my question how was the first one ?

[@The_Sk3ptic]

Thank you for commenting this, I’ll be making this one day

[@nolanebi]

My neighbour's loved your carrot cake recipe. The moisture was superb.

[@brendamendez6152]

Which one out of the 2 did you make ?

[@BoomDriveProductions]

Getting back in my baking era. You’re a Lifesaver John

[@eveofalliance]

Made it yesterday!!! Used local eggs and homemade vanilla extract. Made a few mistakes, but it was a success! Thank you!

[@beatrizsandoval4395]

I grew up in Mexico eating an amazing carrot cake that had all the ingredients you used plus the ones you mentioned your mom uses. Raisins and pineapple. I loved it! We used the same recipe as long as I can remember but when I moved I lost it. Since then I have made many carrot cakes and none tastes the same unfortunately 😢. I keep praying one day I will find a recipe I’m happy with. I have to try yours for sure. Oh another thing is that we always used to eat the cake without frosting. It was more like a coffee cake. So delicious 😋

[@biol3502]

😜

[@NikkiLee23BBy]

So I read a person comment a couple down from yours saying they make this Brazilian one by mixing all wet ingredients in blender. Than mix with dry ones. After baking, cover it in some kind of chocolate frosting, ganache, or Brigadiero (kind of fudge made from condensed milk and chocolate powder. Or she says there's a traditional cracked one made with milk, sugar, chocolate powder and butter. Hope this helps !!

[@queenbee3647]

I love carrot cake. I make mine over the top - pecans, raisins, fresh carrot of course and TOASTED COCONUT. 😋 Game changer. Family loves it.

[@Unknown2Yoo]

My local grocery story bakery always made carrot cake with raisins. I had it every since I was a kid and thought that's just how it's made it. When I got older and got carrot cake elsewhere I noticed that raisins are "special". I have to go out of my way to make sure there's raisins because there's literally no other way to have it to me! It's just the right texture and flavor balance with the nuts and carrots ❤

[@SilviaContreras-g8w]

Quiero tu receta😊

[@dtharge4082]

Husband hates raisins. Making this for his birthday😊yum 😊

[@mrsmorgan7955]

I did the same too. I put coconut shredded and toasted coconut! So yummy!

[@rubybarber8547]

I love the bowl your using for mixing look antique. Just right for making this recipe.

[@Existing_Echo]

I made this for my wife today for her birthday and she absolutely loved it! Thank you 🙏

[@boething]

My guy loves carrot cake, so I may have to make this! I’m a retired elementary teacher with a new, huge kitchen, and I love being home and in there! That and my sewing/craft room are my favorite places to be!

[@juliewander3234]

sounds like heaven

[@stellamartin1145]

Greetings from another retired elementary teacher

[@dgalaxy2002]

That looks so good, never had it before though. Im from Brazil and here carrot cakes are very diferent, so good but a whole new vibe. We blend the carrots into the batter so it becomes all orange and smooth, to top it of we just add a coat chocolate sauce. Goes really nice with a cup of coffee.

[@Fewe00]

That sounds so good 🤤

[@sofiajuarez4881]

Thank you for this recipe. It came out great! Super soft, not dry at all. Frosting even better

[@bonitaoffak6614]

I absolutely love all of your videos, without question. My husband and I had to give up white sugar and white flour two years ago. I have been making your recipes with a combination of quinoa flour, coconut flour, and almond flour. For sweeter I have been substituting blue agave syrup and honey. It all translates very nicely. Thank you for all the inspiration you share with me and all of your (many) fans!

[@rpk1519]

My mother took the top off of a finger with a mandolin and I refuse to ever have one. Glad to know you feel the same!

[@snapgab]

I made your chocolate carrot cake recipe for my birthday last year and it was amazing! A huge success for everyone who tasted it. I'll have to give this recipe a try too at some point.

[@andreacarreiro5436]

You should try someday the brazilian style carrot cake! All wet ingredients go on the blender, including the carrots, and then you mix with the dry ones. After baking, it's covered with some kind of chocolate frosting: ganache, brigadeiro (a kind of fudge made out of condensed milk and chocolate powder) or the traditional cracked one made with milk, sugar, chocolate powder and some butter. It tastes like "granny's cake"!! Delicious!

[@SilviaContreras-g8w]

No es tan rico

[@glendaharding4884]

I absolutely love all the tips you give, thank you for that!! This cake looks amazing, great for Easter!!

[@jamesktucker979]

Orange zest in the frosting for Easter. I appreciate you.

[@jeanneamato8278]

I double the frosting because my husband love it so much , he’ll add spoonfuls to his slice. I make it once a year for his birthday.

[@rocioalonso8234]

[@harrow2355]

There is such a big difference making your own carrot cake instead of buying from the market,delicious cake,your frosting rocks,its 👍.

[@sil2575]

I tried it today and my nephews love it. I also take out half cup of sugar and substitute for brown and dark brown sugar; i add some thinly sliced ginger as well. The cake turn out great, not too sweet for me to enjoy and the amount of cinnamon in this recipe is perfect (I hate strong cinnamon smell). Now I wait for my mom to try since it mother’s day tomorrow.

[@sherrylnassiah4648]

I used your recipe last week, boy I was amazed, I loved it will be using your from now on .That roasted pecans was to die for.❤

[@GemmieSmith]

I used one recipe yrs ago and added black walnuts instead and received lots of compliments on it.

[@monakotran9821]

It is delicious. I substituted 1.5 cups of flour with almond flour and used apple sauce instead of half the oil. It came out awesome!! I really appreciated all the substituted ingredients that he offered.

[@christinelewis1825]

[@ilove1direction48]

Okay so I made this and EVERYONE loved it. It was such a simple recipe and not so expensive to make. I did only use half a pound of carrots because I was so scared with that many carrots 😂😂 but it worked out. I also made it in three small foil tin cake pans. For the frosting, I love a more cream cheese taste so I only used one cup of powder sugar. This will definitely be a staple cake in my household ❤thank you for the recipe!!

If you want to reduce the sugar, which I highly recommend you do, but without changing the texture too much, you could add a tablespoon of room temperature butter half way through mixing.
