  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded carrots (freshly grated)
  • 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • ½ cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.

  5. In a separate bowl, beat softened cream cheese with sour cream until smooth; add an egg and mix well.
  6. Pour half of the carrot cake batter into the prepared pan. Spoon dollops of cheesecake mixture over it, then top with remaining carrot batter. Use a knife to swirl gently for effect.
  7. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool before serving.
