HOW TO STORE YOUR CINNAMON CARROT CAKE
Once your cake is baked, I’m sure it won’t last long! Whenever I bake it for my family, everyone fights over the last slice.
Leave the cake unsliced, store in an air tight container and foil out the container. Without the slices, the cake has a much better chance of not drying out.
Let's start this easy and soft, moist carrot cake recipe with step by step photos method.
Total Time : 40 minutes
Prep time : 10 minutes Baking Time : 25-30 minutes Course : Breakfast Cuisine : American Serves : 3 to 4 serves Author : Jolly Makkar Makes 1 large loaf
Ingredients :
Maida / All Purpose Flour – 3/4 cup
Whole Wheat flour / Atta – 1/4 cup
Grated carrot – 1/2 cup heaped
Curd/Dahi – 3/4 cups
Refined oil /Olive Oil– 1/4 cup
Milk – 3 tbsp
Granulated Sugar -1/2 cup
Vanilla essence – 1/2 tsp
Cinnamon powder – 2 pinch (optional)
Baking powder – 1/2 tsp
Baking Soda – 1/2 tsp
Salt - A pinch
Roughly Chopped walnuts for garnishing – handful
Preparation Method:
1. In a mixing bowl add curd, sugar. Mix well until sugar completely dissolves.
2. Add milk and olive oil. Again mix it by using hand blender or balloon whisk.
3. Wash, peeled and grate the carrots finely and keep it aside. // You can add 1 egg this time, if you want to add, I didn't added.
4. Now add grated carrots, mix well. Then add cinnamon powder, vanilla essence and give a quick stir by using balloon whisk.
DRY INGREDIENTS
5. Sieve maida, wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder with a pinch of with salt. Fold it gently with wet ingredients. Mix well (don't overmix it)
6. Preheat oven at 180 deg C for 10mins. Meanwhile lay butter paper inside the tin(only for the bottom)…Grease it with butter and maida. After pouring the batter in tin, tap the cake for 1 or 2 times, if there is bubbles in batter it will set, after tapping.
7. Bake the cake at the same temperature for 25-30mins or until the toothpick inserted at the center comes out clean. I want more crispy top, so i baked total 30 minutes otherwise the cake is baked on 27 minute.
8. Immediately take out the cake tin from oven, before demold. Allow it to cool for 1-2 hours, before slicing.
9. Slice it, cool completely and store in an airtight container.
important tips
* Baking time again differs from oven to oven, depends on the tin also… mine took around 27 mins flat for the cake to bake fully but what I would suggest is check after 22mins then proceed accordingly.
* The cake keeps well at room temperature for 2 days then refrigerate it. While serving may be you can just warm it up in oven and then serve it. * I used homemade dahi, you can use market based dahi too. * I wanted to add wheat flour so I added 1/4 cup, but you can skip it then add 1 cup maida fully also.

This frozen yogurt bark with mango is the perfect refreshing snack. It’s so easy to whip up, healthy and packed with protein. You’ll want a batch in your freezer at all times.
This recipe is super simple to make – it’s the perfect recipe to involve your kids in.
Frozen Yogurt Bars Ingredients
plain yogurt – I personally like using full-fat yogurt for yogurt bars because it’s thicker and a bit more rich, but you can use regular plain yogurt... if that’s all you have and low-fat yogurt & for my vegans friends can use Greek yogurt.
Sugar or honey – I used sugar in it because my mangoes are not too sweet and if it’s not bough sweet you can use honey too. If you want to keep the recipe super low in sugar you can use plain yogurt without sweetening it, but I think it tastes really good with a little maple syrup.
Mango– you can use any fresh mango chunks you like, but I love the swirls in it, so I use purée for bars and purée to makes swirls inside the bars 😋😀 you can use any fruits of your choice.
Tutti frutti for garnish - you can use anything, it perfectly goes with dry fruits and great going with coconut flakes
One of my favorite recipes to use to cool off with are these frozen fruit bars. They are so simple to make, and they are better for you than most of the ice cream bars and other frozen treats that you will normally find at the store because they are made with fresh yogurt.
In my family, we all are big fan of ice cream, but as you all know, ice cream isn’t always the healthiest dessert option. That is why I decided to replicate some of the fresh ice cream bars into this.
You can use the same mango yogurt mixture into popsicles too, I made that way also but forget to click it.
