🥕✨ Best Carrot Cake Recipe ✨🥕

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line them with parchment paper.
Grate the carrots and set aside. Ensure they are tightly packed for accurate measurement.
Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set this mixture aside.
Step 3: Combine the Wet Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the vegetable oil (or melted butter) and granulated sugar until well combined.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract.
Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake light and fluffy.
Fold in the grated carrots, and if desired, the shredded coconut and chopped nuts. Ensure everything is evenly distributed.
Step 5: Bake the Cake
