  • Yield: undefined

Ingredients

Cake:

  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon allspice
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups shredded carrots
  • 1 cup walnuts, chopped

Cream Cheese Frosting:

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 ½ cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a bundt pan generously with baking spray.
  2. Grate carrots and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ginger, and cloves.
  4. In another large bowl, beat eggs, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Stir in shredded carrots.
  5. Gradually fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until smooth. Fold in walnuts.
  6. Pour batter into prepared bundt pan and spread evenly. Bake 45–50 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool in pan for 20 minutes, then invert onto wire rack to cool completely.
  8. For frosting: beat cream cheese until smooth, add heavy cream, vanilla, salt, and powdered sugar until creamy.
  9. Spread or drizzle frosting over cooled cake. Garnish with extra walnuts or a light sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.

Notes

  • Add ½ cup golden raisins for extra sweetness.
  • Replace walnuts with pecans for a different nut flavor.
  • Use a cream cheese glaze instead of full frosting for a lighter finish.
  • Substitute part of the vegetable oil with melted coconut oil for a tropical twist.
