Carrot cake

The cake didn’t turn out the way I was expecting, I think in part because I couldn’t find my mini baking tin so baked it in a larger dish, so the mixture was quite shallow.

In retrospect, the textural outcome may have been a positive. It’s a little crumbly and is a cross between a biscuit and a cake.

Both my boys gave it a thumbs up (and trust me, that’s not a given).

If we have a child that is okay with carrot, then this could be a fun option.

If we have a child not yet eating carrots, perhaps pre-cooking and pureeing the carrots first would make it easier to accept.

Recipe

62.5g melted butter
1 dst sp of sugar (I used coconut sugar)
1 egg
1 tbs milk
½ tsp vanilla
¾ cup of grated and then chopped carrot (puree to remove visibility)
¼ cup sultanas
¾ cup flour
I also added ¼ cup chopped dates
Mix all together
Pour into greased tin
Bake at 180˚ until browning and cooked through (12 minutes for my shallow cake)
