Time 1h40m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 lb large carrot, peeled
1 cup buttermilk, room temperature
2 ½ cups all purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 ¾ teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 cups light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs, room temperature
1 tablespoon McCormick® vanilla extract
1 cup vegetable oil
2 sticks butter, softened
16 oz cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 vanilla bean, seeds scraped
3 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line the bottoms of 3 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper and grease with nonstick spray.
  • Make the cake: Grate the carrots on the large holes of a box grater. You should have about 6 cups.
  • In a large bowl, combine the grated carrots and buttermilk and stir until the carrots are completely coated.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose and whole wheat flours, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, salt, baking soda, cloves, allspice and nutmeg.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer), combine the brown and granulated sugars, eggs, and vanilla. Beat on medium speed until the mixture drips from the whisk in ribbons, about 3 minutes.
  • With the mixer running on medium speed, slowly drizzle in the vegetable oil, scraping down the sides of the bowl halfway through, if necessary. Continue mixing until the mixture is fully emulsified, about 2 minutes.
  • Add ⅓ of the flour mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. Add ½ of the carrot mixture and continue mixing on low speed until incorporated. Continue alternating adding the flour and carrot mixture. Remove the bowl from the mixer and use a flat rubber spatula to bring the batter together.
  • Evenly divide the batter between the prepared cake pans.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let the cakes cool for about 10 minutes, then remove from the pans and let cool completely.
  • Make the frosting: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer), cream together the butter, cream cheese, vanilla extract, salt, and vanilla bean seeds until creamy, about 1 minute. Add the powdered sugar and continue mixing until silky and smooth, about 4 minutes.
  • Assemble the cake: Dab a bit of frosting on a cake board and place a cake layer on top. Scoop 1 cup of frosting onto the cake. Repeat with the remaining 2 layers. Use the remaining frosting to coat the top of the cake completely, leaving the sides naked.
  • Slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!

Categories     Pancakes

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 12

DRY INGREDIENTS
4 c Bisquick baking mix
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
WET INGREDIENTS
4 eggs
2 c milk
FRUIT
2 c carrot, shredded
8 oz crushed pineapple
walnut pieces

Steps:

  • 1. Shred carrots in a food processor for best results. You can use baby carrots if you don't want to peel carrots. An 8-ounce bag will give you about 3 cups of carrots but you can use them for another recipe you've been dying to try!
  • 2. Mix dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Use a fork or a wire whisk to make sure you get everything mixed up from the bottom.
  • 3. Crack eggs into a small bowl and beat them together. Add milk and stir together. I make sure that there are no large gobs (technical term) of eggs in one place.
  • 4. Slowly stir wet ingredients into the bowl with dry ingredients making sure you have everything mixed up from the bottom and not too many lumps.
  • 5. Stir in carrots; mix well.
  • 6. Drain liquid off of the pineapple and set aside. Stir pineapple chunks into the batter. If your batter is too thick, you can add some of the pineapple juice to thin it out and add more pineapple flavor through out the pancakes.
  • 7. Preheat pancake griddle and a small amount of canola or vegetable oil. Using 1/4 cup measuring cup, place pancakes onto the griddle. I put 4 at a time on mine. Sprinkle with crushed walnuts. If you prefer you can add them to the batter, but I think they "get lost" doing it that way.
  • 8. Turn pancakes after the bubbles that form on the sides and top. It takes only 1-2 minutes depending on the density of the batter. Let cook on the other side about a minute more. Press with a spatula. If they are too dense they might need longer to cook. Pressing them will squeeze the raw batter out of the sides and make them more even in thickness.
  • 9. Enjoy with your favorite syrup or cream cheese frosting thinned out to a pourable consistency.
