- PRE-HEAT THE OVEN TO 180˚C/160˚C FAN/GAS 4
- PREP - Separate the eggs. Peel and grate the carrots. Wash and grate the lemon for the zest.
- MIX - In one bowl, mix the egg yolks, sugar, lemon zest, grated carrots, ground almonds, cornflour and cinnamon to a coarse paste. An electric mixer or food processor is best for this job.
- WHISK - In another bowl, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form.
- FOLD - Fold the whisked egg whites into the carrot mixture with a large metal spoon.
- BAKE - Butter a 23cm loose-bottomed round cake tin and line the bottom with baking parchment. Pour in the cake mixture. Bake in the oven for 1 hour.
- COOL - Take the cake out of the oven. Leave it to cool in the tin for 5 minutes then turn out, peel the parchment off and finish cooling ideally on a wire rack or large dish.
