A wonderfully moist, perfect recipe for carrot cake. This delicious homemade carrot cake would be perfect for any celebratory occasion or as an afternoon snack idea with friends.
A cake that is simple to make from scratch with pantry ingredients. You can easily make it in an afternoon, with plenty of time to kill while the cake is cooling down. The carrots are the star of the show, the crushed pineapples add acidity and at the same time add moisture to the cake.
No stand mixer is required! You’ll just have to whisk together the dry ingredients in one bowl, the wet in another, and stir to combine. This cake is just right. This sweet would be an awesome treat for your kids and friends.
Freshly toasted, chopped pecans or almonds are optional, but would be an excellent addition to the cake recipe. A lemon glaze made of milk, powdered sugar and lemon juice would be a wonderful topping for this cake.
This cake recipe is perfect with a bottle of sweet wine. Here are the top choices:
- Port
- Sherry
- Madiera
- Vin Santo
