Keep all wet the ingredient ready. Warm honey a little.
Put all the blender ingredients. Blend smooth.
Once blended, taste and see if sweetness is enough. Adjust as per your preference.
Keep all the dry ingredient ready.
Sieve flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
Now slowly add the blended puree. Whisk till fully incorporated. This cake has a thick batter.
Now fold in the almonds and raisin.
Grease baking tray with oil and line with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the baking tray
Using a spatula, spread the batter and flatten the top.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes at 325 degrees F. Insert a knife. If it comes clean, its ready. I baked for 35 minutes
Let the cake COMPLETELY cool.
Once cooled you can cut and have cake as it is. I have done honey syrup and jam glaze.
Honey Syrup- In a bowl, take 4tbsp honey and 1tbsp hot water. Mix Mix Mix. Its ready.
Jam Glaze- Heat a pan in low flame. Add ½ cup Jam and 1tbsp water. Mix well. Heat for 2 minutes.
Add ¼ cup grated dry coconut (kopra). Mix well. Take off heat and let it cool down.
Once the cake has cooled completely, poke holes with an inch distance from each. This will help the cake absorb the honey syrup all over and remain moist. The just spoon the honey syrup over the cake.
Now spread the jam glaze. Decorate as you please
Your healthy delicious Carrot Cake is ready!
