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 mixing bowl, mix sugar, vegetable oil, and eggs. In another bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, salt, 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.
