Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes     Bundt Cake Recipes

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, plus more for mold
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for mold
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed light-brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup packed peeled grated carrots (4 to 5 carrots)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted, finely chopped
1 teaspoon confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch (5-cup) trois freres mold or Bundt pan. Dust with flour, and tap out excess. Put butter and brown sugar into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add vanilla and carrots, and mix until just combined. Reduce speed to low. Add flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Mix until just combined. Stir in walnuts.
  • Pour batter into the prepared mold. Bake until a cake tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack 15 minutes. Turn out cake onto rack, and let cool completely. Before serving, dust with confectioners' sugar.

Tips:

  • Ensure accurate measurements: Use a kitchen scale to measure ingredients for precise results, especially for baking.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The quality of your ingredients greatly impacts the final product. Opt for fresh carrots, ginger, and other ingredients for optimal flavor.
  • Grate the carrots finely: Finely grated carrots incorporate better into the batter and provide a smooth texture to the bread.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in a tough bread. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Bake the bread in a preheated oven: Preheating the oven ensures an even bake and prevents the bread from sinking in the center.
  • Check for doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of the bread. If it comes out clean, the bread is done. Avoid overbaking, as it can dry out the bread.
  • Let the bread cool before slicing: Allowing the bread to cool completely before slicing helps it hold its shape and prevents crumbling.
