Camilla Bundt Cake with carrots and hazelnuts, a soft and indulgent cake with carrots and hazelnuts, which is part of our collection titled: “Grandma’s bundt cake recipe: many soft and delicious ideas
How good carrot cakes are, they are so delicious and fragrant that you cannot resist the temptation to eat them all by yourself and so I have already prepared the Soft bundt cake with cream and carrots, the MUFFINS WITH ALMONDS AND CARROTS, the Carrot and almond bundt cake, and the Carrot pound cake with wholemeal flour and fructose and many more.
I often make carrot desserts, they remind me of the snacks I used to eat as a child at my grandmother’s house, so from time to time I serve them to my children.
A few days ago I wanted to make the Camilla cake, but unfortunately or fortunately I noticed I didn’t have almonds at home and only had hazelnuts.
What to do then? Simple: a Camilla cake with hazelnuts!
The result? Here it is, a spectacle of taste, softness and aroma, which I enriched with a delicious white chocolate coating!!

  • Fold the blended mixture into the egg whites with gentle upward motions and incorporate, finishing by adding the baking powder.

    After these steps, pour the batter into a Bundt pan greased and floured, and bake at 338°F in convection mode; do the toothpick test before removing from the oven.

    Let it cool slightly and then remove from the pan.

    Once cold, heat the white chocolate in a bain-marie and melt it, add two tablespoons of sunflower seed oil and mix.

    Pour the chocolate over the cake to glaze it, finishing by sprinkling with chopped hazelnuts.
