If you love carrot cake..

Here is my moms recipe. She won an award for this when I was little, I remember I wanted to eat all of the cake and they wouldn't let me

I omit walnuts because I hate them, but this is by far the best carrot cake I have ever had.

Enjoy.

3 c. grated raw carrots
1 c. chopped walnuts
1 c. raisins

Combine sugar, oil & eggs in a large bowl, mix until well blended.
Sift in flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt & cinnamon.

I usually break my batches up into 3 shallow 5 x 7 loaf pans.

Nice even bake time and leaves the center PH moisture while providing a good top crust pop.
