Ingredients

This victory cake recipe requires two and a half cups of all-purpose flour, one and a half teaspoons of baking powder, one teaspoon of baking soda, a quarter teaspoon of salt, one and a half cups of sugar, one cup of vegetable oil, four large eggs, two teaspoons of vanilla extract, one cup of buttermilk, one cup of chopped walnuts, and three cups of grated carrots.

Instructions

To start with this victory cake recipe, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

In a large bowl, beat together the sugar, oil and eggs with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. This will take about 3 minutes. Beat in the vanilla extract.

On low speed, beat in the dry ingredients alternately with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Fold in the walnuts and carrots. Divide the batter between the two prepared pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips

This victory cake recipe can be made gluten-free by substituting gluten-free flour for the all-purpose flour.

To make the cake even more delicious, try frosting it with a cream cheese frosting.

Variations

This victory cake recipe can be made even more flavorful by adding one cup of raisins or other dried fruit, or one cup of chopped apples or other fresh fruit. For a sweeter cake, add one cup of shredded coconut or one cup of chopped nuts. Additionally, if you prefer a spicier cake, try adding one teaspoon of cinnamon or one teaspoon of nutmeg.

Storage

If you have any leftover victory cake, it can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. The cake can also be frozen for up to 3 months. To freeze the cake, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, then place it in a freezer-safe container or bag. To thaw, remove from freezer and let sit at room temperature for several hours.

Serving Suggestions

This victory cake is delicious on its own, but it can also be served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Additionally, it can be served with a warm cup of coffee or tea. For a special occasion, top the cake with fresh fruit or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
