It is a very fine cake, a little damp, fluffy, with a slight cinnamon flavor (carrots do not feel). Ideal solution for those who have capricious children (like mine :) and they really like sweets. I promise that the next 2 recipes will be more dietetic, I made the cake today and I can't help but put it on the site first. I recommend with confidence!

Finely grated peeled carrots

Step by step

Step 1

In a bowl mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon.

Step 2

Carrot is given through a small grater.

Step 3

Add carrots, oil and eggs to the flour mixture.

Mix well with a spoon the whole mixture, at first it will be drier, then the carrots will leave more juice and it will be just right.

Grease a 28-30cm round tray with butter, spread it with baking paper.

Step 7

Pour the dough into the pan and put it in the oven over medium heat for about an hour.

Step 8

It is ready when it browns well and passes the toothpick test. Let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes.

After 15 minutes, remove from the pan, cover with a little powdered sugar and cinnamon and leave to cool well. You can also cover it with a cream prepared from cream cheese, powdered sugar and cinnamon, it will be even more delicious.
