Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Beat the wet ingredients

5 min

Beat the egg and sugar until foamy, then add the cooking oil and mix.

2

Add the carrot and apple

4 min

Stir the grated carrot and apple into the mixture.

3

Add the dry ingredients

4 min

Sift in the flour, cinnamon, and baking powder. Mix just until combined, without overmixing.

4

Bake

35 min

Pour the batter into a greased pan. Bake in an oven preheated to 175°C / 345°F for about 35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool, then slice.

Reminder

The natural sweetness of the carrots and apples allows for less sugar. Contains gluten (wheat flour) and eggs. Let the cake cool completely before slicing. Store in a covered container for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
