Carrot cake
This carrot cake, provided by our beneficiary, the Queen’s Nursing Institute, is a perfect quick bake to try this Christmas. The touch of cinnamon makes it a particularly warming winter treat.
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 200C.
- Combine all dry ingredients and mix. Then pour in wet ingredients (oil, vanilla, eggs). Combine well.
- Butter a round baking tin then dust flour around the tin (to stop cake sticking) – or use baking paper.
- Cook in oven for 30 minutes or until skewer inserted comes out clean.
- Dust with icing sugar if you like and enjoy!
