Ingredients 

Cake

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup grated carrots

  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. In another bowl, mix together the oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
