Instructions:
Preparing the Batter
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vegetable oil until well combined.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Stir in the grated carrots, crushed pineapple, chopped walnuts (if using), and vanilla extract until evenly distributed.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Baking the Cake
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Frosting the Cake
- Once the cake is completely cool, prepare your favorite cream cheese frosting.
- Spread the frosting evenly over the top of the cake.
- Slice and serve the cake, garnished with additional grated carrots or chopped walnuts if desired.
