Now let me tell you what this classic carrot cake loaf is!
It’s perfectly softIncredibly moistTastes just as fresh the next dayHas a surprising crunch in almost every bite thanks to the chopped walnuts, plus also has added raisins in for extra bites of sweetness.A Few Tips Before We Get Started!
I recommend you hand grate the carrots for best results. As much as I love my magimix mixer, I wouldn’t recommend it here, for the simple reason being that even the finest setting of your food processor won’t grate your carrots as fine as a hand grater will.It will seem as if you have added an exaggerated amount of grated carrots to your batter, don’t worry! That’s one of the reasons this cake tastes so incredibly delicious. So, just follow the steps and pop that cake into the oven. Trust me, you’re in for a treat.And finally, as much as my intention was for this to be a casual coffee carrot cake, you’re more than welcome to add your own coconut cream frosting if you wish.So there you have it. Simple, casual, classic vegan carrot cake loaf in under 30 minutes! I can’t wait to hear what you all think, and if you loved this recipe let your friends know all about it. Remember, sharing is caring!
