Instructions
Instructions Hummingbird Carrot Cake Preheat oven to 350℉. Grease and parchment line two round 8” x 2” cake pans. In a bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, spices, and salt. Using a stand mixer or electric handheld mixer, blend together olive oil, eggs, and vanilla. Then, add both sugars and mix until smooth. Turn off the mixer and add the bowl of dry ingredients to the wet, all at once. Mix everything together just until combined (don’t overmix, or the cake may become too dense). Finally, by hand, fold in bananas, pineapple, carrots, and coconut. Evenly distribute the batter between two baking pans. Bake for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool on the counter. Cream Cheese Frosting Using a stand mixer or handheld electric mixer, cream together the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla. Then, add confectioners sugar and mix until smooth. Candied Carrot Curls Using a vegetable peeler, make long, wide strips of carrot. Preheat oven to 225℉ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add 1 c water and 1 c granulated sugar to a pot and bring to a boil. Lower the temperature slightly, add carrots, and simmer for 15 minutes. Then, drain carrots from the pot and let cool for about 5 minutes. Next, place carrots on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes. While still warm, wrap carrots around the handle of a wooden spoon, then let them cool for about 30 minutes. Decorating Hummingbird Carrot Cake Once the baked cakes have cooled, apply a thick layer of cream cheese frosting on top of one layer, then add the second layer on top, and apply a crumb coat of frosting to the entire outside of the cake. After applying the crumb coat, place the cakes in the fridge for 30 minutes before adding the final layer of frosting. Finally, add cream cheese frosting over the entire cake and decorate with pecans and candied carrot curls. Enjoy!
Cream Sherry, Alcoholic Drink, and Ingredient are my top picks for Carrot Cake. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. You could try NV Solera Cream Sherry. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 17 dollars per bottle.
