A Classic Recipe for Moist and Flavorful Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar

- 1 cup crushed pineapple (drained)
- 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan or two 9-inch round cake pans.
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
3. In a separate large mixing bowl, beat together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vegetable oil until well combined.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
6. Fold in the grated carrots, crushed pineapple, and chopped nuts (if using) until evenly distributed.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan(s) and spread it evenly.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes (or 25-30 minutes for round pans) or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Remove from the oven and let the cake(s) cool in the pan(s) for about 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Once the cake is completely cooled, frost it with cream cheese frosting. You can decorate it with additional chopped nuts or grated carrots if desired.
