Postopek

Korak za korakom

1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 23x33cm (9x13 inch) baking pan.
Približno 5 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Using baking spray with flour can make this step quicker.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Približno 3 min
3
In a separate medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then whisk in the vegetable oil until combined.
Približno 2 min
4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Približno 2 min
Kuharjeva opomba: A few small lumps of flour are okay; overmixing can make the cake tough.
5
Gently fold in the grated carrots, followed by the chopped walnuts if you are using them.
Približno 2 min
6
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and use the spatula to spread it into an even layer.
Približno 1 min
7
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Približno 40 min
8
Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
Približno 15 min
Kuharjeva opomba: This initial cooling period helps the cake set and makes it easier to remove from the pan.
9
Carefully invert the cake onto the wire rack and let it cool completely to room temperature.
Približno 45 min
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.
Približno 3 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Ensure the butter and cream cheese are truly at room temperature for a lump-free frosting.
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.
Približno 4 min
12
Once the cake is fully cooled, spread the frosting evenly over the top.
Približno 3 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Frosting a warm cake will cause the frosting to melt and run.
