Carrot Cake

I replace half the oil with applesauce and it still tasted pretty oily. I can't image making the recipe as is. As a side note, I'd add more cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. It didn't seem like it had much flavor.

thank you!!! moist and tasty. my family loves it:-)...however i read the reviews after making one and found that by adding nutmeg, clove and replacing half a cup of oil for apple sauce it was the best carrot cake ever!!!...oh i also threw in a hand full of raisins.
one proplem i have is that once cut the layers slide of to side which spoils the look!!! but not the taste......any tips for making it stay together.

Had an overabundance of carrots so was looking for a good carrot cake recipe as DH loves it and I also needed to make cupcakes for 2 church functions. Nice taste, but found 1 1/2 C of oil way too much. Made first batch as is according to the recipe, the cupcakes fell after coming out of the oven...and DH thought they were underdone, so baked next pan longer-same thing... Made a 2nd batch with only 1 C of oil, and also didn't pack the grated carrot. Perfect! Big difference between the 1st & 2nd batch. They raised up nicely and didn't fall, better texture, didn't taste underdone, DH gave his approval on the 2nd batch.

Yum!!!!! I made this in two 9" cake pans, sprayed with Baking spray. I also decorated the sides of the cake with glazed walnuts.

This was good, but I have had better. I found it a little blah. It definitely needs more spices. The frosting is delicious, but really, how can you go wrong with cream cheese and butter ;)

This was pretty good cake! We like more frosting, so I made a double batch of the cream cheese frosting and added some vanilla .

Very moist and flavorful cake. Easy to put together and directions are right on. I also added a little nutmeg to mine. I aso shedded and measured my carrots and put them in my food processor with the oil, eggs, sugar and vanilla and blended until well mixed. I put that mixture in a mixing bowl and added the flour etc. I used a 16 X 11 cake pan and baked for 30 minutes. When I removed the pan from the oven I put in the garage (it was 21 degrees out there) and let it cool then frosted them. So yummy!

Awesome, awesome, awesome! Fresh, moist, not too sweet frosting. So perfect. Hands down the best carrot cake I've ever had. My dad said "I didn't know carrot cake could taste like this." Thank you for this recipe!

I can see why this cake won a blue ribbon! I made it one day out of the blue - was just in a baking mood - by 9 P.M the next day the cake was gone! I've since made it 3 more times and it's just delicious!! Moist & Yummy!!!

I love this carrot cake version! It is very moist & the cake is not overly sweet like some I have tasted. I made a sheet cake & everyone love it!

I make this cake for my husband's birthday every year. The only thing I change is cutting the powdered sugar (I make the icing by taste so I don't know how much sugar I add each time).

Easy and delicious. As others recommended, I used 1 cup of oil, 1.5 cups of sugar, 1/2 tsp of nutmeg, and it turned out beautifully, and not at all oily. Also used 1/2 lb of icing sugar and tsp of vanilla in the icing. Now that I know how easy carrot cake is, I will use this recipe again.

Moist, not too sweet, easily to put together cake. I also like the simplicity of the flavor.

Very moist and flavourful cake! I used two teaspoons cinnamon and 1/4 nutmeg and baked it in one large tin. Everyone loved it!
