2. Using your flour and butter, grease and flour the 20cm cake tin that will be used as your cake mold.
3. Place all ingredients except the flour and baking powder into the blender. Let it blend until all the carrots are in the mix and no solid is left.
4. Add a little bit of flour from time to time, then let it blend again. Keep repeating until all the flour has been placed in.
5. Add the baking soda and mix until all the ingredients are combined.

1. Like all other vegetables, make sure to pick a fresh set of carrots for your carrot cake. Don’t slice it too big so that the blender can mix it with the other ingredients smoothly.
2. Don’t forget to check your oven from time to time so that it won’t get too over burnt. Normally, it takes about forty five minutes for a cake to bake. Timing is of key, sometimes even just a minute late and your cake will be lopsided.
3. By using the blender to mix the ingredients, you no longer have to worry about the cake not rising because it will make sure that every ingredient has been blended to perfection.
