Steps:
- Grease a square cake tin by brushing it lightly with neutrally-flavoured oil. Line it with baking parchment, then oil lightly again. Preheat the oven to 180°C/Gas 4.
- Peel and trim the parsnips, then coarsely grate enough to give 250g of grated vegetable. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs together, then add the oil, sugar, lemon zest, vanilla extract and grated parsnips. Stir to combine and set aside.
- Sift the self-raising flour, cinnamon and salt into a second large mixing bowl. Make a well in the centre, then pour in the parsnip mixture. Add the chopped walnut pieces and stir just enough to combine the ingredients and make a stiff batter.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared cake tin, spreading it out fairly evenly into the corners. Bake for 1 hour - 1 hour 20 minutes or until the cake is well risen, the top is firm and brown, and a metal skewer inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean.
- Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes in the tin before lifting it out to a wire rack to cool completely. Dredge with icing sugar before serving.

PARSNIP SPICE CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or two 12-cup muffin tins (or line the muffin tins with cupcake papers).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, sugar, baking soda, salt, ginger, and cloves. Add the parsnips, cherries or cranberries, and walnuts and whisk thoroughly. Stir in the flour and mix until fully combined. Pour the batter into the cake pan or fill the muffin tins three-quarters full. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 minutes for cupcakes or 40 minutes for a cake. Let cool for 5 minutes in the pan before inverting onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Frost with the cream cheese frosting and garnish with additional cherries.
- Cream Cheese Frosting
- Beat the butter in a small bowl and add the cream cheese. Mix until thoroughly blended, scraping the sides of the bowl while stirring. Stir in the vanilla and lemon juice. Add the powdered sugar, 1/4 cup at a time. Taste after each addition for sweetness. Add more powdered sugar until the desired level of sweetness is reached.
- Make Ahead
- The cake or cupcakes can be stored, covered, for up 3 days at room temperature or 5 days in the refrigerator.
