Ingredients
- 225 g self raising flour
- 150 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 150 g brown sugar
- 30 g Caster Sugar/Granulated Sugar
- 2 large carrots
- 2 large eggs
- 2 Tbsp semi skimmed milk
- 1 Tsp mixed spice
- 1 Tsp cinnamon
- 1 Tsp ground ginger
- ¼ Tsp nutmeg
Carrot Cake Frosting
- 85 g Philadelphia cream cheese
- 16 g butter
- 60 g icing sugar
- 1 Tsp vanilla essence
Kitchen Gadgets:
- Cosori Air Fryer
- Silicone Cake Pan
Instructions
- Peel your carrots and then using a grater, grate the carrots.
- Place your flour, grated carrot, all seasoning, and sugars into a bowl and mix with a fork.
- Make a well in the centre and crack in your eggs.
- Add your oil and then mix well with a hand mixer.
- Gradually add in the milk making sure the carrot batter is not too thick.
- Pour the carrot cake batter into your silicone and place the silicone into the air fryer basket. Air fry for 15 minutes at 180c/360f, then reduce the temperature to 170c/340f and cook for a further 26 minutes or until a cocktail stick comes out clean.
- Allow to cool and then whilst it is cooling make your cream cheese frosting. Start by adding the icing sugar and the butter into a bowl and mixing with your hand mixer. Then add in the other ingredients and then mix again.
- Once the cake is cool, using a bread knife chop the top off the cake to make it level.
- Then spoon on the frosting. Use the back of your spoon to level the frosting over the top of the carrot cake.
- Fridge for an hour to completely cool before slicing into 8 equal parts.
Notes
- Serving. This carrot cake air fryer recipe will make 8 medium/large carrot cake slices. If you are feeding a crowd opt for diving into 16 portions rather than 8.
- Powder – I find that icing sugar can be grainy if all ingredients are added at the same time. Instead add the icing sugar and butter first before adding in the cheese.
- Sugar. There is only a small quantity of white sugar and you can use either granulated sugar or caster sugar.
- Thanks for reading our carrot cake in the air fryer recipe on Recipe This. We have many more air fryer recipes for you to check out next. Though if you would like more easy sweet treats, I recommend you try our air fryer chocolate chip cookies next.
