Number Of Ingredients 12

¾ cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ cup honey
¼ cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons thick plain yogurt
2 medium carrots, peeled and finely grated
1 orange, zested
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 6-inch cake pan.

  • Mix honey, oil, and yogurt together in a bowl, stirring gently.
  • Combine carrots with the honey mixture; add orange zest and vanilla extract. Add flour mixture by the spoonful, folding gently until no dry spots remain. Add a couple teaspoons orange juice if batter is too thick. Pour into the prepared cake pan.

This cake is a perfect way to use up leftover carrots. I always have a few carrots left over after juicing and this is a great way to use them up.
