Time 55m

Yield 2 cakes

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups vegetable oil
8 large eggs
4 cups sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
4 cups flour
1 teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoons cinnamon
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
5 cups carrots (fine grated)
2 (8 ounce) cans crushed pineapple
3 cups chopped walnuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix vegetable oil, eggs and vanilla in a bowl; set aside.
  • Place sugar, flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, baking powder, soda and salt in large bowl.
  • Mix wet ingredients into dry till well blended.
  • Fold in carrots, pinapple and nuts.
  • Bake times are approximate (insert knife in center, cake is done when comes out clean).
  • Spring Form pan: 60-70 minutes.
  • Tube/Bundt pan: 50-60 minutes.
  • Loaf pan: 40-50 minutes.
  • 8" cake pans: 30-35 minutes.
  • Again, this recipe makes several of the above. I usually make a two layer cake then maybe a loaf or mini loafs. I imagine you could make some nice muffins or sheet cake as well but I am not sure of the cook times. Top with your favorite cream cheese frosting or eat plain.
