Carrot and Sultana mini cakes
These are simply the most delicious little things I've baked in a long time (possibly ever). Hmm.... perhaps being on a diet has something to do with it, lol!
They are yummy and moist and just...... divine!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup sultanas
2 large grated carrots
1 1/4 cups plain flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp mixed spice
3 eggs
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup olive oil
Method:
Turn the oven on to 180 degrees Celsius. Mix the sultanas and carrot together.
Sift together the flour, salt, baking soda and spices in a separate bowl.
In a large bowl, thoroughly beat together the eggs, sugars, and oil. Stir the mixed carrots, and sultanas into the egg mixture until thoroughly combined, then fold in the dry ingredients, mixing no more than necessary.
Spoon the mixture into Muffin pans (silicon bake ware is best for this -trust me) then bake for around 15 mins in the oven.
Eat warm with ice-cream or yoghurt :) - so yummy it could be used as a dessert!
BTW, you may find yourself eating more than one, they are that good!
