minutesMy mom and grandma have been making this cake for years and are famous for it. It’s the only carrot cake I will ever make!
Ingredients
2 cups 2 all-purpose flour
2 tsp 2 baking powder
1 1/2 tsp 1 1/2 baking soda
1 tsp 1 salt
2 tsp 2 cinnamon
2 cups 2 sugar
1 1/2 cups 1 1/2 vegetable oil
4 4 eggs
2 cups 2 grated carrots
1 cup 1 crushed pineapple (I use canned)
1/2-1 cup 1/2-1 walnuts, chopped
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350℉.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl. Beat in the sugar, oil, and eggs. Once well combined and creamy, stir in the carrots, crushed pineapple, and walnuts.
- Generously grease two 9-inch cake pans with non-stick spray. (You can also use a 9×13 baking dish and add 20 minutes to the baking time)
- Bake for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Once out of the oven, let cool completely.
- Top with your favorite cream cheese frosting or use my recipe in this cookbook!
