Carrot cake with everything

Posted by Bake Club on Wednesday, October 26, 2022, In : big cakes 

There are no less than 9 recipes for carrot cake on Bake Club - it's a perennial favourite for sure. This one ticks all the boxes for vegetables, nuts, fresh fruit, dried fruit, spices, healthiness and it's a double decker - all topped with the essential cream cheese icing. It's from Allyson Gofton's The Baker's Companion (Penguin Random House, 2019).


4 eggs

2 c grated carrot

1 3/4 c caster sugar

1/2 c raisins, plumped up by soaking in water or liqueur for half an hour

1/2 c walnuts or pistachios

Coconut cake with pineapple curd and coconut buttercream

Posted by Bake Club on Wednesday, November 24, 2021, In : big cakes 


This three-part cake celebrates tropical flavours, a nod to our Pacific neighbours. Buttercream is a real indulgence so I've offset it somewhat with a healthier butter-free cake. The curd can also be made dairy-free.


Curd:

400 g fresh pineapple or a can pineapple in juice

1/4 c / 4 Tbsp butter or non-dairy spread

1/4 c cornflour

1/4 c coconut cream or milk

1-3 Tbsp sugar, optional

few drops yellow food colouring


Make the curd first. Blitz the pineapple in a blender until smooth.

Melt the butter on a l...

Pineapple upside down cake

Posted by Bake Club on Tuesday, October 18, 2016, In : big cakes 

Upside down cakes are so much fun to make! I made this gluten free for a morning tea and was much appreciated by my GF friends.
60g butter
1/2 c brown sugar
7 slices canned pineapple and reserve the juice
25 maraschino cherries
1 2/3 c gluten free flour (I used GF mix and buckwheat)
1 tsp xantham gum (be careful not to use more as it will make the mixture too gummy)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
60g melted butter
1/2 c brown sugar
1/4 c rice malt syrup
1 egg
1 tbsp vanilla extract

Nutty choc chip cookies

Posted by Bake Club on Wednesday, August 12, 2015, In : cookies 

I adapted these beauties from I Quit Sugar. I added a bit more quantity of chia seeds and an egg at the end to help bind it all together as the mixture seemed very crumbly. Result: perfectly crunchy and healthy bikkies!

1 1/2 c almond meal
1/2 c walnut meal (I used 1 c almond meal, 1 c spelt flour)
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp ground chia seeds
1/2 c ground cinnamon
pinch salt
3 1/2 Tbs coconut oil
1 1/2 Tbs rice malt syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 c dark chocolate, at least 70% cocoa, chips or chopped

Birg's hummingly good hummingbird cake

Posted by Bake Club on Friday, September 17, 2010, In : big cakes 

This cake was so popular at work, by the time I got to photograph it most of it was gone! Birg also makes a gluten-free version with riceflour and almond meal. Most excellent.

3 eggs
1 cup caster sugar
1/2 cup rice bran or grape seed oil
440g can crushed pineapple, drained of juice (Birg used pineapple chunks, very nice)
2 mashed bananas
1/2 cup desiccated coconut
1 1/3 cups self-raising flour
Pinch of salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon

Cream cheese icing
250g cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cu...
