How to Make Easy Orange Carrot Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together oil, eggs, orange juice, and orange zest.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the grated carrots and walnuts (if using).
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, frost with your favorite cream cheese frosting.
