Receta de tarta de zanahoria fácil

Preparación

• paso 1

  Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas mark 4. Grease and line the base and sides of two 20cm cake tins with baking paper. Whisk together the oil, yogurt, eggs, vanilla, and zest in a bowl.

  

  In another bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg, with a good pinch of salt. Break up any lumps of sugar you see with your fingers. Shake the tin a few times to help them rise to the surface.

• paso 2

  Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, along with the carrots, raisins, and half of the walnuts, if using. Mix well to combine, then divide between the two bowls.

  

• paso 3

  Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. If not, bake for 5 more minutes and then check again. Let cool in the pans.

• paso 4

  To make the glaze, beat the butter and sugar until smooth. Add half of the cheese and beat again, then add the rest (adding it gradually prevents the glaze from curdling).

  

• paso 5

  Remove the cakes from the tins and place them on top of each other, with half the glaze in the middle. Cover with the remaining glaze and top with the remaining walnuts. It will keep in the refrigerator for about five days. It's best eaten at room temperature, so take it out half an hour beforehand if it's been in the fridge.
