Before trying the eggless whole wheat carrot cake recipe, I was hesitant about replacing the eggs. However, I decided to give it a go with a combination of whole wheat flour, baking powder, and baking soda. To my delight, the cake turned out moist and flavorful, and my son absolutely loved it. I’m excited to make it again before the winter ends and the juicy carrot season comes to a close.

3. In a bowl, mix oil, sugar (both granulated and brown), and vanilla essence for the preparation of eggless whole wheat carrot cake.
4. Mix properly till the sugar mixes thoroughly.
5. Now add flour mix and milk alternatively.
6. To the batter add carrots and mix.
7. The batter should be of dropping consistency. Add milk to adjust the consistency.
8. Pour it in a greased tin and bake in a preheated oven for about 40 minutes.
Always check in between because the heating varies from oven to oven.

Hi Sagarika,
It can be baked at 180 degree Celsius, or the temperature in which you bake bakes in your oven, each oven is different and it is better you follow the instructions in the manual
