How to Make Jimmy G's Carrot Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour two 9x1 1/2-inch round baking pans, or grease one 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon 5-spice seasoning.
- Add 2 cups grated carrots, 1 cup vegetable oil, 4 large eggs, and 1 cup shredded coconut to the dry ingredients.
- Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until thoroughly combined.
- Gently fold in 1 cup chopped walnuts and 1/2 cup raisins.
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared baking pan(s).
- Bake for 30-35 minutes for round pans, or 35-40 minutes for the 13x9-inch pan, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto wire racks to cool completely.
- Once completely cool, frost with your favorite cream cheese frosting (recipe not included).
- Cover and refrigerate for best flavor.
