Carrot Cake

[COOK TIME: 30 MIN]

Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 cup white sugar
4 eggs
1 cup canola or vegetable oil
4 cups grated carrots
Optional:

3/4 cup chopped walnuts

Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease two 9" inch round cake pans.

Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Set aside.

In a large bowl, mix together the sugar and eggs until thick and pale. Stir in the oil mix well, then gradually add in the sifted dry ingredients. Fold in the carrots and nuts [if desired]. Spread equal portions into the prepared pans.

Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the cakes comes out clean. When cool, frost with your favorite Cream Cheese Frosting.
