  • 1 1/4 cups wheat flour/atta(gothambu podi)


  • 1 cups carrots(grated)


  • 1 cups sour cream

  • 2 tsp vanilla extract


  • 1 tsp baking powder


  • 1/2 tsp baking soda


  • 1/8 tsp salt

  • Grate the carrots using a grater or a food processor.
  • Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F. Grease a loaf pan with cooking spray or oil or butter.Sift the dry ingredients - wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt using a sieve in a bowl.
  • In another mixing bowl, add sour cream, oil and vanilla extract. Using a whisk, mix all the ingredients until it turns creamy. Next, add sugar to the bowl and whisk again.
  • Add a couple tbsp more sugar if you like your cake slightly more sweet.Now add grated carrots to the mixing bowl and whisk again. Lastly, add the sifted dry ingredients, little at a time and gently mix with a spatula. Do not over mix. Add this thick cake batter to the greased loaf pan. Using the spatula spread it evenly.
  • Bake the cake at 350 degrees F for 35 - 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Keep an eye after 20 minutes, cause baking time in ovens may vary.
  • Let the cake cool in the pan for 5 - 10 minutes. Invert the cake pan on the cooling rack and lightly tap the pan. Slice the cake after it cools down completely. Enjoy!
