Categories     Dessert

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 ¼ cups unsweetened applesauce (or oil, this is what my Nana used)
2 cups granulated sugar
3 eggs (room temperature)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups grated carrots
1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup Dole crushed pineapple (not drained! {use the pineapple in JUICE not syrup})
½ cup butter (softened)
8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 pound powdered sugar
top with toasted pecans or coconut if desired

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine #1 ingredients. Add #2 ingredients. Stir in #3 ingredients.
  • Pour into a lightly greased 9 x 13 , two 9-inch pans or three 8-inch pans. (The cake is very moist so cutting parchment for the bottom of your pans will ensure they don't stick. I prefer to use the non-stick baking spray that has the flour in it for easy cake removal.)
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes for the 9x13 and 9-inch pans and 25-30 minutes for the 8-inch pans. You're looking for an inserted toothpick to come out clean.
  • Let cakes cool for 10 minutes in the pan and then remove to a cooling rack and let cool completely.

  • Preheat the oven to 350* and place a rack in the center of the oven. Butter and flour a 9 x 13” baking dish or a 9 x 9” square cake pan and set aside. Alternatively, line the cake pans with parchment paper.
  • Trim and peel the carrots, then finely grate using a box grater and set aside. Note: you can use a food processor to grate the carrots, but know that the finished cake will have a softer consistency with more moisture.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon into the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the sugar and whisk until incorporated. Switch to to the paddle attachment. Add the oil and mix on low speed until incorporated. With the motor running continuously on low, add the eggs, one at a time, pausing for a few seconds in between each egg. Turn off the motor and add the carrots, pineapple, and coconut to the bowl. Mix on low until just barely incorporated.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or cake pans. If using a 9 x 13” pan, bake for 40 minutes, then check for doneness. If using a 9 x 9” pan, bake for 60 minutes, then check for doneness. To check for doneness, press the center of the cake with two fingers - it’s ready when it gently springs back. (Note: the pineapple will make the cake very moist, so depending on the humidity of your kitchen, cooking time may exceed one hour.) Remove from the oven, place on the counter and allow to cool in the pan for 25-30 minutes or until cool to the touch. It can then be further cooled at room temperature or transferred to the fridge.
