A fantastic, easy to make cake that remains moist for a good few days!This cake is so moist and flavorful with the cinnamon and with lots of sweet carrots. Great taste, light and healthy cake. I have made it several times and everybody likes it. I hope you love this recipe as much as I do!

Cut the cake into slices to serve. Along a slice of this cake, you can serve vanilla ice cream.
