We advise that you prepare all the above ingredients before starting.

You will typically need: a scale, measuring cups, mixing bowls.

 

Carrot Cake

1 - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2 - Grate the carrots with a box grater.

3 - In a mixing bowl, gently mix the flour, salt, clove, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda using a whisk

4 - In another mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add both the sugar and the light brown sugar. Mix until a golden color appears.

5 - Pour the liquid mixture (from step 4) into the dry one (from step 3). Stir a little with a spoon to start combining the ingredients, then pour the melted butter into the mix. Mix more thoroughly until a homogeneous texture is reached. You may also use a hand mixer.

6 - Add the carrots to the mix and mix. Add the cranberries, raisins and chopped pecans and mix some more until the mixture is homogeneous.

7 - Coat the inside of a cake pan with melted butter using a pastry brush (boar/silicone) and fill the pan with the mixture from step 6. Flatten the mixture with a spatula to give it some density. For a beautiful looking cake, we recommend the Heritage Bundt® Pan from Nordic Ware. We love their high quality cake pans in general!

8 - Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 40 minutes.

 

Cinnamon Sauce

1 - Put the cream cheese in a mixing bowl and microwave it for 30 seconds.

2 - Once softened, add the cinnamon, clove, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined. Incorporate the powdered sugar and mix thoroughly until a uniform beige texture appears. Pour the heavy cream and mix until the texture becomes more liquid and a homogeneous off-white. 

3 - Pour the cinnamon sauce over the carrot cake. 

4 - Enjoy!
