Bereiding

  1. Prepare the tins

    • Line the bottom of two 20 cm cake tins and grease the sides with butter.
    Stap 1

  2. Whisk the wet ingredients

    • Whisk together the oil, yogurt, eggs and vanilla until thoroughly combined.
    Stap 2

  3. Make the batter

    • Add the flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, grated carrots and walnuts to the wet mixture.
    • Mix with a large spoon until fully combined and no lumps remain.
    Stap 3

  4. Bake the cakes

    • Bake at 180 °C (160 °C fan) for 30–35 minutes, until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
    Stap 4

  5. Cool the cakes

    • Leave in the tins for 10 minutes, then turn out and cool completely (the fridge speeds this up).
    Stap 5

  6. Make the frosting

    • Whisk the butter, cream cheese and vanilla until combined.
    • Add the icing sugar a little at a time, whisking between additions, until smooth.
    Stap 6

  7. Assemble the cake

    • Place one cake layer upside down on a cake stand and spread half the frosting on top.
    • Set the second layer on top and spread the remaining frosting on top or all over.
    Stap 7

  8. Finish and serve

    • Sprinkle with extra chopped walnuts as you like.
