This carrot cake is, to me, perfect: chewy dates instead of raisins, and toasted nuts ON TOP instead of in, absolutely zero pineapple in sight, and you don’t need a mixer. It’s sweet but not too sweet (it’s…sweet enough, even), dense but not heavy, and has so many carrots, you might not believe it will taste good (but it truly does). It doesn’t even really need frosting, although I do understand the sentimental attachment-and it makes it look nice, too. It also doesn’t really need to be served cold (it’s perfect at room temperature), but at this point I’m hoping you can just trust me on these things. Refrigerating it does give it a dense, custardy, almost fudge-like texture that feels simultaneously luxurious and healthy, screaming “mid-day snack” or “this could be breakfast.”

Carrot cake just isn’t the same without a few shavings of your grated skin baked in.

@bubbleteasaint5741 25 дней назад

Home Movies editors and cinematographers, you guys did our Queen Alison Roman so much justice!! OMG!!! Thank you! Thank you too to the producers and all the team for listening to the comments from us who couldn't really focus on the previous videos with the style used before, and making the changes. This was so fun and easy to watch and follow. Thank you for another great recipe video Alison and for not taking the comments personally. Sorry if I was anal about the editing and shooting style before but this was truly such a joy to watch today! ♥I happen to have a ton of carrots to use up in the fridge too so...this is what I'll be doing haha.

@smilyPebble 24 дня назад

Agreed! I got to the last bit of tasting home video footage and celebrated that I no longer felt motion sickness from watching the video! Big thank you for listening to the feedback team AR!

This feels like the perfect meld of the Home Movies some of us were missing and the bougie smooth-jazz "new" Home Movies. Great video, great recipe, I'm so happy today!

@Lisa-jm3nk 25 дней назад

Happy to see old energy and humor back

@zd4vis 25 дней назад

Great job! You dialled it back a notch and it really paid off. Feels more relaxed and homely. Really really enjoyed this. Thanks to all involved!

No one in these comments is asking the hard questions: what happened to David?! We miss him and I’ll be so sad if he doesn’t have a birthday episode this year.

While I miss the banter from the past, people move on! I’m sure he wanted to do something different. Let’s let things ‘evolve’.

@pdxchick 25 дней назад

Crazy timing… making this tomorrow for my wife’s birthday! Carrot cake is her absolute favorite!

@sarahwatts7152 24 дня назад

You can use spray oil to lube the knife for the dates, no cuts ventured, much gained

@MonaBenjamin-ci2dy 5 дней назад

I never really comment but wanted to say that: 1. I don't like (and have never liked) carrot cake but I really felt an urge to make this carrot cake and I like it. A lot. 2. A cake that tastes better eaten cold from the fridge is a thing of joy to me. 3. I very successfully halved this recipe to make a slightly smaller cake, using 2 medium eggs instead of 3 large, and adding another 10g of flour. 4. Thank you.

@robobunny 25 дней назад

I made this for a cookout and it was a huge hit! Honestly one of the best things I've baked in a long time!

@juliannmcguinniss9676 23 часа назад

Seriously the best carrot cake ever!!!!! It was everything I hoped for and MORE. Made one last weekend and my husband wants another for Father's Day ( dinner will be your eggplant parm) Thank you Alison for the best recipes and the joy I feel from watching your Home Movies

I have every ingredient to make this today- except for the carrots!! Going shopping tomorrow, will pick some up and make it. My fave cake is carrot cake so thank you for the recipe.

@mandz61 25 дней назад

I also made this for my friends birthday and everyone RAVED about it. Killed it once again.

@droman0120 25 дней назад

Aside from hurting when you hurt yourself on that vicious box grater this was a great HM episode. Love the pistachios

@MEmneina 25 дней назад

I just took this cake out of the oven! I had all the ingredients at home :-)) It’s cooling now, going to whip up the cream cheese frosting next. Can’t wait to try it!! I abhor raisins, so this cake spoke to me!

@SonalDack 25 дней назад

I always thought I wouldn't like carrot cake, but this home movie makes me think I might!

@elijahcohen227 25 дней назад

As someone that once consumed carrot cake cold while hungover, can confirm it is indeed better colder.

@patriciamurray1184 24 дня назад

I never thought to add dates, now that I have seen you do it, it just makes sense.

@cindirocks322 25 дней назад

I love your energy!!!!! ❤

@charmainemadamba3939 25 дней назад

Not peeling carrots = I feel seen/heard. Also, it's been a minute, Yellow Bowl.

@lesliespann6420 24 дня назад

After grating my knuckles off for years, I started using a cut glove if I have to use a grater. For grating large volumes, I use my food processor.

@washurhands5079 25 дней назад

In defense of raisins - one of my favorite quick pasta sauces is tomatoes, garlic, capers, and raisins

@DeltaSixDJ 18 дней назад

Funnily enough I like raisins in savoury applications (good balance to salty and acidic ingredients) and absolutely despise them in cakes (where I find them weird, unwelcome and oddly bitter).

@meghanhill7666 25 дней назад

Yes! I love the peeled carrots part lol! I don't peel carrots, they barely have a peel!

@Suzd.2591 23 дня назад

Why have I never thought of adding dates to carrot cake? Thanks, Alison! Recipe sounds great. Definitely trying.

@FishareFriendsNotFood972 25 дней назад

I am a believer in cold cake in general, cannot wait to make this for my dad

@kaitlynthurman 24 дня назад

I saw this video and immediately bought some carrots (and dates) and made the cake this afternoon, a quarter of it is now gone 10/10!

@johnewing3671 24 дня назад

Thanks for showing your cute crew, guys eating cake, yum 👍

@k213389 24 дня назад

lovely to see you and the new production team find a groove--it's still giving early seasons Nigella (which is great!) but also you seem more like yourself. I do really like carrot cake but for me it has to include walnuts! I can't help it. But excited to swap out the raisins tbh.

@scrane5500 24 дня назад

Looks so great--love CC! Going to try this plant-based as I have a family history of Cancer so need to avoid the estrogen and BLV in dairy and the lead and choline in eggs. Thanks so much for sharing

@rachelbushong9239 24 дня назад

the yellow bowl bit had me howling. I didn't even know I missed ol yellow bowl

@aclementine9928 25 дней назад

I love me some walnuts in a carrot cake but I shall try and refrain using them while making this recipe because it looks so delishhh

@ritam2025 23 дня назад

We had carrot “cookie cake” (dense and delicious) at our wedding 10 years ago and I still dream about it! The baker then moved from Brooklyn to Florida. I definitely need to make yours. Love you, Alison!

@serenadimattia5147 20 дней назад

@TheArmachillo 25 дней назад

We made this cake last night and it was delicious! My favorite part were the dates

@stacyvlogs 25 дней назад

Wow, I'm here early. Edit: Carrot cake was my grandfather's favorite and he lived to 100. Love this.

@ryannordheimer 25 дней назад

This was the cake I made to celebrate me moving to New York last year. It was dense lol but I think in a good way

@grnapricorn2393 22 дня назад

I love carrot cake and can't wait to try this recipe. I also do wish this channel could be more discerning with sponsorships. BetterHelp was chased off the platform once for a reason.

@boydolivia 16 дней назад

Among the many Hard Agrees for me in this video: 1. I never measure stuff when cooking, but a kitchen scale is indispensable for baking. 2. Why sift when you can whisk? 3. No one will notice if you don't peel your carrots (esp. in a context like a carrot cake). Mild disagree: A raisin is a good surprise... especially a golden raisin!!

@tao5231 24 дня назад

@michaeltaslitz1761 18 дней назад

I made this cake as a gift to my wife for our 34th anniversary. It turned out great, and we shared it with friends.

@alisoneroman 18 дней назад

That is beautiful 🌸❤️ happy anniversary!

@chrissstttiiine 22 дня назад

someone at the end of the video said "not too sweet" which is the highest compliment, especially if you're asian.

@lisasevaaetasi3403 25 дней назад

I think I would shred the carrots on the small shred or will that change the cake consistency?

@kungfukennypowers 22 дня назад

@2:55 If this recipe was a diss track, Light brown sugar just said "Fuck the big 3, it's just big me"

@Balthrop 21 день назад

I love you. This is a timely recipe for me! So many carrots in the fridge. I'm so glad you got a husband and a store. You deserve every happiness

@NataliaRossi-ny7ut 23 дня назад

This looks amazing

@kimberlyuhuru9512 15 дней назад

I made it this weekend with the cardamom and ginger. At first I was thinking, this is an insane amount of carrots, but it was truly delicious. The dates were a revelation. It's the perfect snacking cake. Thank you!

@alisoneroman 14 дней назад

Haha I warned you that you’d think “way too many carrots” haha

@BrendonLee 24 дня назад

I just made carrot cake last night and I agree, it taste best overnight in the fridge. Also because I live in a stupidly hot tropical country and I skipped dinner so I could have cake for breakfast.

@saramunnelly211 24 дня назад

The getting it out of the fridge/feeling a little naughty reminds me of Nigella Lawson's bit where she eats something out of the fridge as a midnight snack. Kindred spirits

@mmrielind 15 дней назад

Oh oh oh, yaaaaz, eat it cold! It’s my favorite way of eating left over birthday cake (with whipped cream). Fridge cold. It's the best. ❤️🥳✌️

@tricianeuhaus1642 22 дня назад

2 questions ~ 1: what is yellow bowl made of? 2: can you link to the actual products you use? like, the scale? ty!

@callen607 24 дня назад

As someone with a nut allergy, I LOVE that nuts are optional (sprinkled on top)! Carrot cake is my favorite ever but so hard to find without nuts. Can’t wait to make this! Is there anything else you recommend sprinkling on the top instead of pistachios? Or just keep plain? Lmk. Thanks :)

@matthewchristensen2912 24 дня назад

Thank you for making it without walnuts 🎉

@melissao.219 25 дней назад

Not a fan of carrot cake but this looks so good. Maybe I haven’t had a good carrot cake. Love your videos/recipes. 😊😊

@alexa_brownie 25 дней назад

I just hosted a Bridgerton watch party for 8 girlies, and this was a HUGE hit! Super duper yummy, stayed nice and moist, and I had leftovers to share with my family and partner after.

@danbev8542 25 дней назад

Wonderful vid! Beautiful cake! And yay…I agree totally with Alison about not peeling carrots! We all learned in 8th grade biology that most of the nutrients are right under the skin. Why would you get rid of that? I use a stiff vegetable brush & scrub vigorously. Your carrots & dates idea looks wonderful to me, but sadly my DH won’t eat dates. (He puts up with me being mostly vegetarian.) Actually, I like raisins, but usually use more interesting things instead. And I love nuts in everything! Love your version, tho & having it cold is genius!

@BP-he4bk 25 дней назад

Lol - honestly you are always great Alison - but today you were absolutely hilarious. Can’t wait to make the cake. Totally agree with the raisins, nuts, pineapple - keep it out of the carrot cake - blech.

@melissajandreski7460 17 дней назад

This is why I have the shredded processor disk and you do it really quick. I can't box grate cups of carrots. But you do then have to clean the processor :(

@MzShonuff123 25 дней назад

I use the guard thingee that came with my mandolin to grate things because I’m too clumsy for that

@yunahkim4667 24 дня назад

where is yellow bowl from? i love it.

@MerBearStare 25 дней назад

I get so nervous watching people use box graters and mandolins.

@willjay916 24 дня назад

Note to self: add bandaids, finger cots, and small first aid kit to the mise. Topanga 1972! I resemble that remark!

@alfredwigmore7057 25 дней назад

I’ve never been so early here and if I don’t come up with something witty soon I’ll lose my spot. Here goes…wanna know why carrots are great for your eyesight? Because you never see a rabbit wearing glasses do you?

@kburzon12 20 дней назад

I made this cake and all I can think is that it has a very uncooked texture?? Is that right?

@sebeckley 25 дней назад

Or just use the grater blade on your food processor or a rotary grater.

@spitre5456 25 дней назад

I can eat carrot cake warm or cold, anytime of day. I love the dates and pistash, this sounds like a great alternative to my walnut, raisin, pineapple additions. 😊 P.S. The store looks amazing.
