super juicy

All ingredients should be at room temperature. Preheat oven to 175 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit). Stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, spices, and salt in a large bowl. Add oil and eggs and mix well with a spatula. Then fold in carrots, walnuts, and raisins. Grease and flour a springform pan. Bake the cake at 175 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit) for 25 to 35 minutes. The cake is super moist—don’t overbake! I use L-organic eggs—or use four if you’d prefer smaller supermarket eggs. It also tastes good if you replace 1/3 of the flour with whole-wheat flour.
