Chef tips
For a soft and even texture, grate your carrots using the fine side of the grater; they will blend perfectly into the batter, adding moisture and juiciness without leaving large chunks. Kids will love helping sprinkle chopped walnuts (if there's no allergy) or raisins on top. For a festive look, add orange zest to the frosting for a fresh aroma that pairs perfectly with the carrot flavors.
