carrot cake recipe | how to make easy eggless carrot cake recipe with detailed photo and video recipe. basically a carrot flavoured cake recipe orange coloured cake recipe which is is mainly prepared for occasions or for breakfast. the cake can be prepared either by mixing the finely grated carrot or by adding the carrot juice to cake batter. further the cake can be served either with or without frosting.
typically the cake batter is prepared with all purpose flour or plain flour which helps to raise it while baking. but in this carrot cake recipe i have added wheat flour instead of maida. i was getting several request for a healthy alternative and hence i used atta for this recipe. the whole idea to make it healthy, is to consume it for breakfast too. in other words the recipe is almost very similar to banana bread or banana cake. further, i have not added any frosting on top of carrot cake recipe. but if you are preparing for this any occasion than i would recommend to add cream cheese frosting or vanilla frosting.
furthermore some important tips and recommendations for a perfect carrot cake recipe. firstly, i have added sweetened condensed milk which contains sufficient amount of sugar and hence i have not added any extra sugar. but if you wish to control the sugar quantity than use plain evaporated milk for this recipe and add sugar accordingly. secondly, do not over mix after adding wheat flour to wet ingredients otherwise it may turn chewy. lastly, i have added olive oil in the place of unsalted melted butter. the main reason is because butter solidifies after the cake is cooled and cake may turn hard.
