Add the raisins and fold the batter gently (don't whisk). By the meantime, preheat the oven for 10 minutes at 180c.

Transfer the batter to the baking tray, then level it with a ladle/spatula slightly and sprinkle little grated carrot all over the batter. Shake the pan twice, so that the air bubbles releases.

Place the tray in a pre-heated oven and bake it for 35 to 40 minutes at 180c or a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Once cooled, invert the tray on a wire rack and gently tap to remove the cake. Then slice it with a sharp knife.

Tips for Best Carrot Cake Recipe
- Use fresh, tender carrots and grate it finely.
- I used unflavoured oil, it can be replaced with olive oil too, it gives nice texture to the cake.
- Don't over whisk the batter, else the cake wont raise much.
- Cinnamon powder can be replaced with nutmeg powder too.
- I used raisins for this Eggless Carrot Cake Recipe, you can use same quantity of walnuts or make it plain.
- The same batter can be used to prepare carrot muffins but bake for only 15 to 20 minutes.
- This cake stays good for 2 to 3 days at room temperature and 1 week under refrigeration, but warm it before eating.
- Always cool the cake and then slice it, else it gets crumbled.
- In Microwave: Preheat it and bake the cake in convection mode at 180c for 30 to 35 minutes.
Common Tips in Baking
1. Baking powder cannot be substituted with baking soda, both are different.
2. Ensure baking powder and baking soda is within the expiry date, else the cake won't raise and turns spongy.
3. Once you prepare the batter, bake it immediately, otherwise, the baking powder de-activate and the cake won't raise.
4. Don’t over whisk the batter, else the cake becomes hard.
5. Choose correct sized baking tray, else while baking itself the cake overflows. To avoid this fill the batter to 1/2 of the tray.
6. If the cake doesn’t get baked in the center, cover the tray with an aluminum foil or butter paper and bake for another 10 minutes.
