Tasty Carrot Cake

A traditional Kerala sweet that balances richness with restraint. Made with jaggery, coconut, and a careful hand, the sweetness is warm rather than overwhelming — the kind of flavour that lingers.

1 hr total|Prep 1 hr|Cook 20 min|8 servings|medium

Ingredientsfor 8 servings

2 cup All purpose flour Maida
1 tsp Baking powder
11/2 cup Carrot — grated
11/2 cup Sugar
1 cup Oil
2 nos Egg
1/2 tbsp Cinnamon powder
1 tsp Vanilla essence — optional

Preparation

Step 1
For preparing Carrot cake, sieve the maida two times with baking powder and set aside.
Step 2
Beat eggs, sugar, oil, cinnamon powder and vanilla essence for 2-3 minutes till all the ingredients blend well together.
Step 3
Switch on the oven to pre heat it.
Step 4
Mix carrot and sieved flour together with your hands gently.(It¦s just to coat the carrot with the flour).
Step 5
Add and mix this dry mixture with the wet one (step no 2) till all the ingredients look even.
Step 6
Pour it to the pan which is coated lightly with butter or oil.
Step 7
Bake it for 40-50 minutes till it cooks properly. (Check it after 30 mints and then after 10 minutes as some of the oven work differently) (Those who have cake tester u can test it with it. For those who don¦t have the tester, take a toothpick or knife like instrument, poke it to the middle of the cake till it touches the tin, if the cake mixture sticks to it then it¦s not cooked properly, so keep it for further 10 v 15 minutes and check it again. If the mixture does not sticks then it ready to eat).
Step 8
Switch off the oven. Keep the cake in the oven for further 10 mints and then take it out. Allow it to cool completely.
Step 9
Carrot cake is ready.

Tip

Hard-boil the eggs first, then make shallow cuts on the surface before adding them to the gravy — this lets the masala flavour penetrate inside.
