Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the oil, eggs, brown sugar, granulated sugar, crushed pineapple, and vanilla extract until fully combined. Add the grated carrots and chopped walnuts to the wet ingredients and stir until well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix with a whisk or rubber spatula until just combined, making sure not to over mix the batter.
- Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking pan and spread around into one even layer. Bake at 350°F for 35-45 minutes or until the top of the cake is set and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. If needed, tent with foil for the last 15-20 minutes of baking to prevent excess browning on top of the cake.
- Remove from the oven, transfer to a wire rack, and allow to cool completely in the pan.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large mixing bowl using a hand-held mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the butter and mix for about 30 seconds-1 minute until well combined and smooth. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract and continue mixing until fully combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Using a knife or an offset spatula, top the cooled carrot cake with the cream cheese frosting. Slice into pieces, serve, and enjoy!
SPICED WALNUT CARROT CAKE WITH PINEAPPLE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss together the carrots, walnuts, pineapple, raisins, and coconut with 1/2 cup of the flour to coat them and keep them from sinking to the bottom of the cake batter.
- Sift together the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt.
- In a mixer with a whip attachment, mix the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy (the "ribbon" stage) then drizzle in the vegetable oil. Fold in the dry ingredients and pour over the carrot mixture. Fold carefully to blend, then pour the batter into a buttered, floured 10 by 3-inch cake pan containing a circle of parchment paper in the bottom. Bake until firm to the touch in the center, about 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Let cool on a rack and then turn out. Dust the top with powdered sugar and cut into wedges to serve.

CARROT , PINEAPPLE AND WALNUT ROULADE
Steps:
- Mix oil,brown, and natural sugars together and then add the eggs and mix in. In a seperate bowl mix the flours with the soda, powder, and cinnamon and then add to the egg and oil mixture and stir just until combined. Add the carrots, pineapple, and the walnuts to the egg and flour mixture and stir just until combined and then pour 2/3 of the mixture into a 11x7inch greaseproof paper lined baking sheet with 1 inch sides and bake for 20 minutes at 375 just until top springs back when touched. The rest of the mixture can be poured into 2 little 7 inch rounds and baked seperately. Remove and lay out greaseproof paper on the counter bigger than 11x7 inches and dust lightly with powdered sugar. Turn the cake onto the paper and remove the paper that was used for baking that is on the top and then using the bottom edge of the greaseproof paper roll up the cake from the 7 inch end and leave rolled up to cool. To make the frosting beat the butter and sugar to combine then add the cream cheese and after combined add the vanilla. When the cake is cool unroll and it will have cracks in it. Frost the inside and then roll the cake back up with the frosting in the middle and without the paper underneath. Lay the cake on a serving plate and either dust with powdered sugar to serve or frost with the remaining frosting over the top and sides. Decorate with sugared walnuts and cut crosswise into slices to serve. To sugar the walnuts put 1/4 cup walnuts in a dry small non stick pan and sprinkle a heaping tablespoon over them and heat on high stirring after the pan gets hot and ensuring the sugar coats them and the walnuts don't burn. Remove and cool on foil.
CARROT AND PINEAPPLE CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Butter 2 (8-inch) round cake pans. Line with parchment paper, then butter and flour the pans.
- For the cake: Beat the sugar, oil, and eggs together in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light yellow. Add the vanilla. In another bowl, sift together 2 1/2 cups flour, the cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Toss the raisins and walnuts with 1 tablespoon flour. Fold in the carrots and pineapple. Add to the batter and mix well.
- Divide the batter equally between the 2 pans. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool completely in the pans set over a wire rack.
- For the frosting: Mix the cream cheese, butter and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until just combined. Add the sugar and mix until smooth.
- Place 1 layer, flat-side up, on a flat plate or cake pedestal. With a knife or offset spatula, spread the top with frosting. Place the second layer on top, rounded side up, and spread the frosting evenly on the top and sides of the cake. Decorate with diced pineapple.
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your roulade will taste. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make your roulade tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the roulade at the right temperature: The ideal baking temperature for a roulade is 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). A higher temperature will cause the roulade to brown too quickly and a lower temperature will not cook it properly.
- Don't overbake the roulade: The roulade is done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will make the roulade dry.
- Let the roulade cool before rolling it: This will help prevent the roulade from cracking.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the roulade: This will help you get clean, even slices.
Conclusion:
The carrot-pineapple-walnut roulade is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover carrots and pineapple. With its moist texture, sweet and tangy flavor, and crunchy walnuts, this roulade is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
