Recipe Introduction

This is my favorite recipe for Carrot Cake. It's a moist cake. I hate it when I get a dry Carrot Cake or one that is overly spiced. This one is just right!

List of Ingredients

2 cups flour
2 tsps. baking soda
2 tsps. cinnamon
½ tsp ginger
½ tsp. salt
3 eggs
1 ½ cups sugar
1 small can crushed pineapples in juice
¾ cup chopped walnuts
2 cups shredded carrots
¾ cup mayonnaise



Recipe

Grease and flour 2 (9 inch) round baking pans. Stir first 5 ingredients. Set aside. Beat eggs, sugar, mayo and pineapples. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in by spoon the carrots and walnuts.

Bake in a 350 oven for 30 – 35 minutes. Frost with cream cheese frosting.

I leave out the ginger. I don’t like the taste of it in a cake and I put in extra cinnamon. Also, I use chopped pecans instead of chopped walnuts. I just like it better. And I bake this cake in a bunt pan.
