Sposób przygotowania

Krok po kroku

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 23x33cm (9x13 inch) baking pan.

    Około 5 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Using baking spray with flour can make this step quicker.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.

    Około 3 min

  3. 3

    In a separate medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then whisk in the vegetable oil until combined.

    Około 2 min

  4. 4

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

    Około 2 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: A few small lumps of flour are okay; overmixing can make the cake tough.

  5. 5

    Gently fold in the grated carrots, followed by the chopped walnuts if you are using them.

    Około 2 min

  6. 6

    Pour the batter into the prepared pan and use the spatula to spread it into an even layer.

    Około 1 min

  7. 7

    Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.

    Około 40 min

  8. 8

    Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes.

    Około 15 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: This initial cooling period helps the cake set and makes it easier to remove from the pan.

  9. 9

    Carefully invert the cake onto the wire rack and let it cool completely to room temperature.

    Około 45 min

  10. 10

    While the cake cools, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter with an electric mixer until smooth.

    Około 3 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Ensure the butter and cream cheese are truly at room temperature for a lump-free frosting.

  11. 11

    Gradually add the powdered sugar and beat on low speed until incorporated, then increase to medium-high until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla extract.

    Około 4 min

  12. 12

    Once the cake is fully cooled, spread the frosting evenly over the top.

    Około 3 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Frosting a warm cake will cause the frosting to melt and run.
