Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 355°F. Grease the baking pan and dust with flour (if round, approximately 22 cm in diameter).
Step 2
Peel the carrots and grate them finely.
Step 3
Beat the eggs with sugar until light and fluffy.
Step 4
Gradually mix in the flour, ground nuts, and spices (I use a ratio of 1/4 teaspoon each of ginger and nutmeg, and 0.5 teaspoon of cinnamon). Add half a packet of baking powder and 0.5 teaspoon of baking soda and salt.
Step 5
Finally, add the grated carrots and gently mix.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Allow the finished cake to cool and rest for 12 hours, covered with a cloth (but honestly, it never lasts that long at our place; everyone eats it right away).
