Small Batch Carrot Cake for Two - the perfect amount of carrot cake!

[@ucsbgirlie18]

I made this recipe and it was a huge hit. I put in a little less sugar and swapped half of the nutmeg for cinnamon. So delightful! Thank you.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad you enjoyed it

[@jendlee9996]

Thank you for this recipe - I've made it several times! Just discovered how delicious it is to leave the cake in for max time (35 min in my oven) and the cake sides get dark and deliciously caramelized.......then leave the sides un-iced, and it's amazing! That brown edge tastes fantastic. My neighbors are all getting one for Christmas. Merry Christmas, Leigh Anne!

I don’t know if you are going to read this comment, but I just want to give you a hug and say to you thank you 🥰 god bless you, I always been into baking but just for my husband and I. I moved to a new city, no friends, no job and one day I found your channel, I started to make the carrot cake, the banana bread and the cinnamon roll and people around me started to ask me if I can make to sell them, and now I sell a lot of baked goods and make my own money thanks to your recipes really you changed my life ❤

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Thanks so much for your sweet comment! I read every comment here on You Tube and appreciate them so much. Thanks so much for following along and enjoy!!

Just made this in a 1/4 sheet pan and it turned out delicious. Also bakes faster. It only took about 10 minutes to bake. I love small batch recipes. I look forward to trying out more.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Love that it worked in a sheet pan. So glad you enjoyed it.

[@darrienpaul]

Your recipes are the best! Please keep making more single serve versions!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

will do!

I love to watch the baking show called come sit at my table. One of the reasons I really love is is that you can also go back and copy any of the recipes he has ever made. His wife also writes the recipe down when the show is over so that you don’t have to copy it while you’re trying to watch it if that’s what you do I wish I knew how to get it because I love your show I am a new viewer and there’s only two of us and I end up giving cake and pie to the neighbors for family members because it’s always too much.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

All my recipes are written down in the description below the video.

Thank you for sharing this recipe. For gluten-free, I tried using the King Arthur Measure to Measure flour, which worked beautifully. I also added 1/3 cup of raisins and unsweetened coconut. My husband loved it.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Glad you enjoyed it and glad the gluten free version worked!

I made this last night! it was the perfect size for my family of 4. I just added the nuts afterward because my kids don't like nuts.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I am so glad your family enjoyed it!!

[@karenrich9092]

When I saw the six inch cake it reminded me of a wedding cake my mom made for a couple to take on their honeymoon. The bottom layer was a six inch cake and the top layer was a cupcake. Definitely fun.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

What a great idea.

[@sisulex20]

I'm going to make this for my boyfriends birthday this weekend. Thank you for another great recipe! :)

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Hope you both enjoy it!

[@sisulex20]

Reporting back- my boyfriend loved it! It was the perfect size, easy to do, and the frosting proportion was great too ☺️

[@saishahardikar4768]

This turned out so great! Thanks for this recipe, it turned out so well that i kinda want to make the full size version now😂 any chance you got another recipe for that? 🤞

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad you enjoyed it!

Hi dear Leigh Anne I recently discovered your channel and am so delighted. I am from india. I find your recipies so easy to follow and a big hug for that. Love the cup as measurement as it's easy to use. Love you and do continue to give such recipies. What about some savory bakes too. Blessings from india

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Thanks so much for following along from India! So glad you enjoy the recipes.

[@FriendsFamilyKitchen]

Delicious recipe 😋 Absolutely Mouthwatering 🤤 I definitely love your recipe. thanks for sharing this awesome video💓💓💓💓

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate that

[@janey79]

New to this channel, and this one will be next to try! I might switch out 1/4 cup of the carrots for crushed pineapple as I typically have some opened in the fridge :)

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Hope you enjoy the recipes!!

[@marionbartley214]

Thank You for this recipe for carrot cake, I've been looking for a recipe for carrot cake, for one to two people. And this is perfect, I most definitely will be trying this recipe with the exception of substituting the sugar, because I'm a type 2 diabetic. Substitution of Stevia/monk fruit. I think it will taste a little bit different than your original recipe. But because I'm accustomed to the stevia/monk fruit sugar substitute it will be just fine.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@StamperWendy]

And if you have more carrot cake lovers, you can bake 2 or 3! Thanks.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Yes you can!

[@wapatsornj5020]

Thank you for the recipe, do we need to bake walnut before using? Thank you

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

You can toast them if you like.

[@wapatsornj5020]

Thank you for your reply

[@anitagelles332]

I don’t have a 6 inch cake pan. Could I use a loaf pan instead?

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Yes, you can, the baking time may vary as the cake will probably be a bit thicker.

[@beverlybenson9981]

❤👏

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Enjoy!

[@patriciasmith7949]

Should there be baking powder in this cake? Mine did not rise.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

the recipe just uses baking soda - was your baking soda fresh?

[@MeTimeKelly]

hooray!!! I love your recipe. I finally did the cake well! However, I don't have any cinnamon or Nutmeg powder so I peeled and chopped some orange peel. I used orange shaved peel in place of cinnamon and Nutmeg powder. It tastes pretty great!!!!!!!!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Sounds great!

[@MeTimeKelly]

@@LeighAnneWilkes please teach more mini recipes!!!! Do you know how to make the 6 nos of cinnamon roll?
