Baking Instructions
Prepare the Oven
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Combine Mixtures
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in the grated carrots and walnuts if using.
Bake the Cake
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool the Cakes
Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
