Note

There is more than one recipe for carrot cake on the forum)) But there is no such recipe. I cannot but quote the words of the author Inna Metelskaya-Sheremetyeva
The only way not to eat AFTER six, eat everything BEFORE six ...)))
Carrot cake. As always, a little story…. I heard about this cupcake for a long time, even at the time when the TV showed "The Osbourne Family" (with Ozzy Osbourne in the title role), where this Ozzy was constantly overeating some kind of carrot cake.
And then in some overworked year, having arrived in Thailand, we wandered into a small pub, which was kept by two ancient grandfathers - a horse racing lover from Ireland and no less ancient, but cowboy and fighting grandfather from Texas. Why they fell in love with me - I don't know, but even my English did not interfere with our wonderful communication. They taught me to play polo (on fingers and from a photo), I used them to play rounders. In general, complete internationalism))). Every evening they treated me to a heap with an awesomely tasty cupcake, and on one of the last days they solemnly presented his recipe. It's simple. Cope playfully. I have been preparing it for many years, but rarely, because I adore this dish to the point of shaking, but I can't have a lot of sweets))))
I do not advise adding anything from myself, I tried ...
And for users registered on FB, I advise you to visit her page. Photos dedicated to Africa are simply amazing!))

Is baking soda exactly a tablespoon? Don't you need to extinguish it? Will there be no soda taste? I want to do it tomorrow.
celfh
Like a tablespoon of quicklime soda. There will be no aftertaste, so the author claims)) I have not tried the pie yet, I baked it for tomorrow's dinner. The pie should be infused))

celfhafter reading the author's story, even I wanted a pie! I have never tried it, it all seems that the carrot is felt, there are a lot of spices in the composition - do they drown out the carrot smell? (Although there are not so many carrots ...) I almost decided)))) you probably need to point out that a tablespoon in all ingredients under the knife , so that no one pours with a slide!
celfh
I took it under the knife)) I'll go and add it. Thank you))

Delicious cake!
Yesterday evening I did it - in the morning there was already one very small piece.
I was afraid to put a tablespoon of soda - to be honest. She put down the tea room - the cake rose gorgeous.
Baked in a slow cooker. There was no nutmeg, but my husband is no longer a fan of spices, he was afraid that he would not eat at all.
Silently watched as he ate in anticipation. And - OH MIRACLE! - he liked this!
Me too. Especially such a delicious sour glaze. Mmmmmm ....
I'm going to cook another one today.

Tanya, and I am very pleased to eat such a delicious pie.
It so happened that yesterday I treated them to a few more people,
and got a flurry of compliments - thanks to you.
This time I did it with orange glaze (it was necessary to put the whole orange wiped off from the zest somewhere
it was delicious too.
In general, I take this recipe for myself in constant for the autumn-winter period - what you need!

Tatyana, how to make the glaze? Heat, or just stir? And apply to a cold or hot cake?

Catherine, just saw your questions today. The glaze is done very simply: pour the icing sugar into a bowl or any container with sides, add 1 tablespoon of juice, stir as much as possible, and add the second spoonful of juice gradually so that the glaze is not very liquid, the result is similar to thick sour cream ... Apply the finished glaze to the cooled cake (room temperature), the glaze will flow on warm.
