Ingredients
  

  • 2 Large eggs
  • 1/2 Cup honey or muscovado sugar for a deeper caramel flavor
  • 2 Medium carrots finely shredded
  • 1 Cup quick oats
  • 1/2 Teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 Cup butter softened to room temperature
  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts optional, for extra crunch

Equipment

  • 7x7-inch baking pan
  • Hand blender or immersion blender
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a 7x7-inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, honey, oats, baking soda, cinnamon, softened butter, and vanilla extract. Use a hand blender or an immersion blender to process the mixture until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.

  3. Gently fold in the shredded carrots using a spatula until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter. If you are using walnuts, stir them in at this stage as well.

  4. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan before slicing. This helps the structure set and makes it easier to frost if desired.

Notes

To achieve the best results, ensure your butter is truly at room temperature so it blends seamlessly into the oat mixture. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
