Ingredients
  

Cake Batter
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 2 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 4 cup orange juice fresh
  • 2 cups carrots finely grated
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp orange zest
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda
Frosting
  • 8 oz vegan cream cheese softened
  • 1 4 cup vegan butter softened
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp orange zest

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Cake Pan
  • Oven
  • Box Grater
  • Whisk
  • Zester
  • Cooling Rack
  • Freezer
  • Scoop
  • Tray

Method
 

  1. Heat oven to 350F and grease pans. Whisk dry ingredients until evenly combined.
  2. Stir juice, vinegar, oil, sugar, carrots, and zest together. Fold into dry mix until just combined.
  3. Spread batter into pans. Bake until risen, fragrant, and a tester comes out clean.
  4. Cool layers completely. Beat frosting ingredients until smooth, fluffy, and spreadable.
  5. Assemble cake, frost between layers and outside, then chill briefly before slicing.

Notes

For softer texture, avoid overmixing and remove cake when just done. For crisper edges, bake a few minutes longer. Freeze unfrosted layers tightly wrapped up to 2 months. Chill cake during assembly for cleaner frosting. Add walnuts, ginger, raisins, or coconut for flavor changes. Store covered in the refrigerator up to 5 days.
