Pipsqueak's Chocolate Carrot Cake with Pear Cider

The crunch of a freshly dug carrot is such a lovely thing. The carrots were lucky to make it home from Doug and Lorna's house without being devoured by the little girls. I am also using some gifted Pipsqueak's Pear Cider from the Little Creatures boy's I met at beer fest.  You need one bowl and one spoon to make this, very simple.

 

 


What you need....

1 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 cup brown sugar
2 cups self raising flour
3 tbsp dutch cocoa
2 tsp bicarbonate soda
1 tsp  ground Cinnamon
1 tsp ground nutmeg
1 cup grated carrot
1 cup chunky walnuts
1/2 pear cider
2 tbsp honey

Make it happen....


1. In a large bowl mix the oil, eggs and sugar until they are well combined.

2. Add the flour, cocoa, bicarb and spices, mix well.


3. Add the remaining ingredient's, combine well and place the mixture in a cake tin of choice.


4. Bake at 170c for one hour or until cooked through.
