BAKING TIME!!!!


Good Morning!!!! :) Woke up today with an itch for baking a cake... Want it to be healthy, summer is almost here but without depriving my girls from a nice dessert. Have carrotts in the fridge and some whole meal flour, it couldn't be any better ! :) 
So here we go...

100% Wholemeal Carrot Cake




















Ingredients:
  • 200 gr Wholemeal flower
  • 3 Eggs
  • 100 gr Brown sugar
  • 100 gr Sunflower oil
  • 200 gr grated carrots
  • 25 gr Walnuts
  • 1 Orange (rind & juice)
Frosting:
  • 125 gr margarine
  • 250 gr Icing sugar
  • ½ tsp Cinnamon powder
  1. Beat eggs, sugar, orange and oil.
  2. Mix in flour, carrots and chopped walnut.
  3. Preheat oven 180 degree Celsius, gaz mark 4.
  4. Bake for almost 45 minutes.
  5. Let it cool down then top it with the frosting.
Tips:
  • You can simply top the cake with cream cheese frosting.
  • Toast some almond pieces and add them on top frosting.
  • Or stay healthy and mix some granulated sugar with cinnamon powder and sprinkle them directly on the cake, gives a very nice taste without the heaviness of a frosting cream...

    Bon appétit!!!
