Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine #1 ingredients. Add #2 ingredients. Stir in #3 ingredients.
- Pour into a lightly greased 9 x 13 , two 9-inch pans or three 8-inch pans. (The cake is very moist so cutting parchment for the bottom of your pans will ensure they don't stick. I prefer to use the non-stick baking spray that has the flour in it for easy cake removal.)
- Bake for 35-40 minutes for the 9x13 and 9-inch pans and 25-30 minutes for the 8-inch pans. You're looking for an inserted toothpick to come out clean.
- Let cakes cool for 10 minutes in the pan and then remove to a cooling rack and let cool completely.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, measure and prepare all of your ingredients. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh apples and carrots will give your cake the best flavor. If you can, buy organic produce.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make your cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake at the right temperature: The cake should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you bake it at a higher temperature, the outside of the cake will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting to set properly.
