Whole Wheat Carrot Cake

Whole Wheat Carrot Cake


Hello my Darlings. 
Hope you all are doing well and safe. Amidst all the COVID-19 chaos and the situation in the world, keep yourself and your loved ones warm and happy with this delicious whole wheat carrot cake recipe!

I am an Indian Baker, now in the UAE on a visit but unfortunately stuck at home, at my cousin's place in Dubai but that can't stop me from baking. When I prepared this cake for my cousin and her family I did not have the comfort of my home kitchen nor the tools and equipment that I needed but I did have the desire and passion to bake and to see my loved one's relish the yummy cake. I am sure most of you are stuck home and may not have the liberty to shop required tools but with some simple and basic things you too can achieve a beautifully baked delicious cake at your home!

So let's begin..
All the measurements in this recipe are measured in cups because I didn't have a weighing scale. So keep it simple and weigh all your ingredients in the same cup.


What you will need:
Whole Wheat Flour-2 cups 
Tip: U can also use All purpose Flour/Maida or even add half quantity Maida and rest half wheat flour.
Brown Sugar-2 cups
If u don't have brown sugar u can use 1.5 cups of white sugar
Cinnamon Powder-2 tsp
Baking Powder-2 tsp
Salt- 1/4 tsp
Mix all these ingredients in a clean bowl and keep aside

Whisk eggs-5 nos The eggs have to be in room temperature  
Vanilla Extract- Few drops                       
Melted Butter- 2 cups You can use vegetable oil too
Grated Carrots-3 cups
Chopped Walnuts-1 cup You can add mixed nuts too










First place all your dry ingredients in a clean bowl now add the whisked eggs little by little and combine gently. Now add the melted butter and continue further. Add the grated carrot and the chopped walnuts and mix. 

I have used a 12 inch non-stick pan, you can use two 6 inch pans or cut down the recipe into half to make a small portion. Grease and line your cake pan with parchment paper. Pour the batter and bake at 180 degree Celsius for 40 mins or until a toothpick inserted at the center of the cake pan comes out clean. 

Remove from the oven once done and let it cool down completely.Transfer your cake on a serving board and serve with some cream cheese frosting or vanilla ice-cream.
