Instructions
Step 1
Start by grating the carrots finely and then *squeeze out any excess moisture* from them. This will help ensure that your cake is not too watery.
Next, take the bananas and *mash them well* using a fork until they are smooth. This will add natural sweetness and moisture to the cake.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, *whisk the eggs and sugar together using an electric mixer* until the mixture is light and fluffy. This process will add air to the batter, making your cake lighter.
Slowly pour in the vegetable oil and continue to mix until well combined. Add the grated carrots and mashed bananas to this mixture, and *stir well to incorporate* all the ingredients together.
Step 3
Next, sift the all-purpose flour along with the baking powder directly into the wet mixture. This ensures that there are no lumps in your batter.
Gently fold in the flour mixture until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix, as this will lead to a denser cake. Once the mixture is homogeneous, you’re ready for baking.
Step 4
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (approximately 350 degrees Fahrenheit). While the oven is heating, prepare your baking pan by either greasing it with butter and dusting it with flour, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and *smooth the top with a spatula*. This will help the cake rise evenly while baking.
Step 5
Now it’s time to bake! Place the cake into the preheated oven and bake for about 45 minutes. Check if it is done by inserting a wooden toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it *cool in the pan for a few minutes* before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. This will keep the bottom from becoming soggy.
Servings
Equipment
Having a few different sizes of mixing bowls will help you in the preparation process. Use a large bowl for mixing the wet ingredients and a smaller one for sifting the flour.
This is a must-have for ensuring your eggs and sugar are whipped to perfection, resulting in a fluffier cake.
