- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon

- 1/4 cup oil
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup grated carrot
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 180 ºC. Prepare your baking pans by spraying them with oil, then placing a cut piece of parchment paper to fit the bottom on the pan. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg.
- Once the oven has preheated, add the plant milk, oil, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract and mix in with a wooden spoon so that it is mostly combined. Some dry patches are ok.
- Fold in the grated carrot and chopped walnuts (if using).
- Divide the cake between the prepared pans and gently spread the batter to fill the pans and flatten the top.
- Bake at 180 ºC until a tester comes out clean and the edges start to pull away from the sides of the pan. Approx. 34-36 minutes.
- Let cool in the pan for 5-8 minutes, then gently turn out of pan. Peel off the parchment paper from the bottom of the cake, then flip upright on a cooling rack and let cool to room temperature.
- Place the cakes on cardboard rounds and wrap them in plastic wrap. Refrigerate to chill before frosting.
