Hi, I'm Kavitha Kumar - a
software engineer from Orange County - California. Trying out new
dishes is one of my hobbies. The carrot cake recipe I've included here
is very easy & can be prepared in a microwave instead of the
traditional oven & it is fast too!! It takes 12-15 min in a
microwave compared to 1 hour and above in a conventional oven.

Carrot Cake
Ingredients
1-1/2 cup flour (shifted)
2 tsp ground cinnomon
1-1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp nutmeg (optional)
1/2 tsp salt
3 cups grated carrot
1-1/2 cup sugar
1 cup oil
1 cup chopped walnuts (also use almonds or cashew too)
3 eggs beaten.
Method
- Sift together flour, cinnomon, soda, nutmeg, salt.
- Combine carrots, sugar, oil, nuts & eggs and blend.
- Add dry ingredients to the egg mixture & pour into 10" pan.
- Cook on high power in microwave for 10-11 min.
- If you feel the cake is unevenly cooking, keep changing the
position of the pan.
- When done, the cake will pull away from the edges of the pan.
You can replace carrots with grated coconut for a coconut cake. And food
color to the cake if desired.
