How to Make Carrot Cake Roll
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a 15x10x1-inch jelly roll pan. Line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the long sides for easy lifting.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup cornstarch, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- In a large bowl, beat 4 large egg yolks until pale and thick. Gradually whisk in ¾ cup honey, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in 2 cups grated carrots.
- In a clean bowl, beat 4 large egg whites with a pinch of salt until soft peaks form. Gradually add 2 teaspoons cream of tartar and beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Gently fold about ¼ of the egg whites into the batter, then fold in the remaining egg whites until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, beat 8 ounces cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Beat in ½ cup honey, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ½ cup raisins, and ½ cup shredded coconut.
- Dust a clean kitchen towel with shredded coconut.
- Once the cake is baked, immediately invert it onto the prepared towel. Carefully peel off the parchment paper.
- Starting from a short end, tightly roll the cake and the towel together. Let it cool completely.
- Unroll the cake and spread the filling evenly over the surface, right to the edges.
- Re-roll the cake gently and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.
