Easy Gluten-Free Carrot Cake

Servings:

This gluten-free carrot cake is so moist and delicious. I have made it for many people over the years and they can't believe how soft and tender it is for a gluten-free cake. Top it with my fluffy homemade cream cheese frosting for a real treat!

Instructions

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. 2 To make the carrot cake: Beat sugar and oil together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla.
  3. 3 Combine baking flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a separate bowl; beat into egg mixture until batter is smooth. Fold in carrots until incorporated.
  4. 4 Pour into the prepared baking dish.
  5. 5 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Allow cake to cool completely for at least 30 minutes.
  6. 6 To make the icing: Beat cream cheese and butter together in a bowl using an electric mixer until well combined. Beat in confectioners' sugar, a little at a time, until icing is smooth and creamy. Add vanilla and beat well.
  7. 7 Spread icing onto cooled cake.
  8. 8 Slice and enjoy!
