No idea if this is from her latest book, but I found it online.

Carrot Cake (Annabel Langbein)

1 c neutral oil (I used rice bran oil)
2 c raw sugar
4 eggs
1 c wholemeal flour
1 c plain flour
3 c grated carrot
1 tsp each mixed spice and ginger
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking soda dissolved in 1 tbsp orange juice (I used milk)

• Beat together oil, sugar and eggs
• Beat in flour, then carrot and spices and lastly baking soda
• Pour into lined 23 or 20cm round cake tin
• Bake at 160c for 50-60 minutes or until cooked through
• When cold ice with cream cheese icing.

akd100, I have Annabel's latest book "Simple Pleasures" and I can't see any carrot cake recipe in it at all, however the above recipe is in Annabel's book "Free Range in the City" where it is called "Carrot Cake for a Crowd".:-))

No, I haven't, but I like the fact that it makes two loaves so one can be frozen if not needed straight away.
