Step 1
Rinse, peel and finely grate the carrot.
Step 2
Grease a loaf pan very well with oil. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) for 15 minutes.
Step 3
In a sieve, take all the dry ingredients mentioned above.
Step 4
Sift and keep aside.
Step 5
In another bowl pour sweetened condensed milk. For a more sweet cake you can add 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar.
Step 6
Add vanilla extract, sunflower oil and milk.
Step 7
With a wired whisk begin to stir and mix the wet ingredients briskly for 1 to 2 minutes to a smooth mixture.
Step 8
Now add the grated carrots to the mixed liquid ingredients. Mix again well.
Step 9
Pour the liquid ingredients in the sifted dry ingredients.
Step 10
With a spatula using cut and fold technique, fold the dry ingredients in the wet ingredients.
Step 11
Use light pressure from hand and fold well. Also do note, not to over do the folding. The batter should have volume and should not fall flat or become dense and thick. It should have a pouring consistency.
Step 12
Pour the cake batter in the prepared pan.
Step 13
Gently shake and tap the pan so that the cake batter spreads evenly in the pan.
Step 14
Place loaf pan on the center rack in the preheated oven. Bake at 180 degrees celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) for 35 to 45 minutes. If using an OTG then heat only the bottom heating element. Since temperatures vary from oven to oven, the time taken will be less or more than what is mentioned here.
Step 15
After 20 to 25 minutes, cover the top of the pan with an aluminium foil. Since condensed milk is used, this cake can get browned quickly from the top.
Step 16
Continue to bake until the carrot cake is done and a bamboo skewer comes out clean.
Step 17
Place the cake pan on a wired tray to cool.
Step 18
Once the cake becomes warm or cools down, then with a butter knife loosen the edges. Invert the cake on a chopping board.
Step 19
Then slice the cake. Leftover cake can be easily refrigerated.
Step 20
Serve eggless carrot cake as tea time sweet or as a dessert.
