To get started with this particular recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can have carrot cake using 9 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Carrot Cake:
- Take 175 g brown sugar (unrefined cane sugar)

Steps to make Carrot Cake:
- Oil a medium-sized cake tin, and line it with baking paper. Heat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
- In a large bowl put sugar, sunflower oil and beaten eggs. Mix with a wooden spoon. Stir in grated carrots, dried fruit (I used chopped prunes as I don't like raisins) and grated orange zest.
- Add flour, baking soda and cinnamon. Mix everything together, the mixture will be soft and almost runny.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 40-45 minutes.
- Allow the cake to cool before serving. You can top it with icing or just sprinkle some icing sugar.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon. I like using all-purpose flour, but you can substitute some of the all-purpose flour for whole wheat or white whole wheat flour. For a gluten-free carrot cake, swap the flour for your favorite gluten-free flour blend. Baking soda helps the cake to rise. Salt, cinnamon, and vanilla extract make the cake taste amazing.
