Most people have tried carrot cake but have you tried sweet potato carrot cake?…
You must! It’s absolutely divine!
I made up this Sweet Potato carrot Cake recipe on a whim one day when my husband and I were invited to a dinner with some friends; themed, Iron chef. We were all given one secret ingredient that had to be incorporated into our assigned dinner course. My secret ingredient was sweet potato and my course was dessert. But what could I possibly make for dessert with sweet potato that people wouldn’t typically expect? Sweet potato gave me fall, pumpkin spice vibes so I had to come up with something that would be delish but was not expected in your traditional thanksgiving dinner meal. And this is where sweet potato carrot cake was born..
Not only is this incredibly unique sweet potato carrot cake a great dessert to take to your next dinner party but it makes for a lovely unexpected addition for your Holiday dinners.
Hurry Christmas Eve Dinner is right around the corner, let’s get right into it, here’s what you’ll need to make this unique dessert recipe:
Ingredients
Make sure all of your ingredients are at room temperature before we begin mixing.
Let’s begin by prepping all of our ingredients and setting your oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
Once its preheated, start off by spreading the walnuts on a baking sheet and roasting them for about 4 minutes and let cool.
Peel your sweet potato and carrots.
Blend the sweet potato until there are no more chunks.
Shred your carrots using a box grater.
Gently peel and grate the ginger.
Mix all your dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg) together in a separate bowl and set aside.
Next, in a new bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar until smooth and then add vanilla.
Slowly add all the dry ingredients.
Add the shredded carrots and sweet potato.
Last but not least, add all the fruit and nuts (golden raisins, ginger, coconut and walnuts) and whisk together on low.
Line your loaf pan with parchment paper or grease the sides with coconut oil. If you decide to use the parchment paper, a little pro tip, cut into the corners diagonally in towards the middle. This allows the paper to fold around giving sharp corners around your pan. These methods are used to avoid the cake sticking to the pan and allowing your cake to be removed easily. The coconut oil gives extra flavor and won’t burn the edges.
Bake at 350 degrees fahrenheit for 60 minutes.
Reminder: Feel free to use whatever baking pan or style you’d like.
Let’s whip up some cream cheese frosting while we wait for our cake to cool down.
Start by whipping your room temperature butter and cream cheese on medium high until smooth.
Slowing add 1 cup of sifted powdered sugar at a time and mix.
Continue mixing on low and add in vanilla, salt and condensed milk then increase to medium/high speed for about 30 seconds.
All done! Now it’s time to frost your cake and Enjoy!
