Thank you!

Carrot cake is my son’s favorite and I’ve been looking for a good recipe!

Except for grating the carrots - which you MUST do by hand! - it’s very easy.

There was a question as to which is the best vegetable oil to use in baked goods these days, and there are so many conflicting opinions out there - I think the original recipe just said ‘vegetable oil’, and as time went on, I changed it to Canola oil, when that was supposed to be healthier.

Now, my nutrition-oriented hubby tells me that Canola oil isn’t that great, and suggests Sunflower oil as a healthier alternative.

But it’s one of those things that you don’t make or eat everyday - or even eat very much of; so I’d probably still use plain old ‘vegetable oil’ from the supermarket shelf.
