This Old-Fashioned Carrot Cake is a timeless classic that’s moist, tender, and bursting with warm spices and sweet shredded carrots.
Grate Your Own Carrots: Pre-shredded carrots are too dry; freshly grated carrots yield the best texture and flavor.
Add Citrus: A teaspoon of orange zest in the batter adds a bright, fresh twist.
Chill the Cake: Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving to let the flavors meld and make slicing easier.
