    One thing that has to be on the Easter Brunch/Breakfast table: Carrot Cake! At least when I am involved in the planning. The Easter Bunny has to have something nice too – and since we know he loves carrots – a carrot cake is pretty much obvious :P This year it is going go be a special carrot cake – the 3-in-1 version… ;)

    3-in-1: Carrot Cake, Cheesecake and Bundt Cake (or Gugelhupf – dunno what you prefer to call it) – sounds good, right? It is! I bought a new  Bundt Cake Pan from Nordic Ware* (once again) and had to make something as soon as the package arrived :P Since we are close to Easter, the carrot cake was pretty much the first thing that came into my mind – to make that even better I added the cheesecake layer to make it more delicious and super moist :)

    Be careful with the cheesecake layer – when added to the batter (it is described in the recipe) you should make sure, it stays in the middle of everything – you should not touch the sides of the bundt cake pan with the cheesecake filling or the result will be a cake that will tear apart at that point – and when this happens on several points, you will end up with a “beheaded” cake :P As you can see on the pictures, I’ve cut exactly at one of those points when slicing the cake, so you can see how it should NOT be ;) So stay in the middle as described in the recipe and all will be fine! Happy Easter!

    DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG

    • English
    • Deutsch
    1. Preheat the oven to 350˚F (175°C). Grease a bundt cake pan and dust with flour. Set aside. Peel the carrots and grate finely.

    2. Add the flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon and salt to a large bowl and mix. Add oil and vanilla extract and mix until well combined. Add the eggs one after another and mix well in between. Mix in the ground almonds and hazelnuts. Add grated carrots, fold in and then set aside to prepare the filling.

    3. In a small bowl mix cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, egg and cornstarch until well combined.

    4. Fill about 3/4 of the batter into the bundt cake pan and press the batter to the sides of the pan. Carefully fill the cheesecake filling into that hollow. If the batter is a bit runny, don’t worry – place the filling on top of the batter in a ring, try not to touch the sides of the pan and press the filling slightly into the batter. Carefully spread the remaining batter on top of the filling so everything is covered. Bake for 60 minutes. Take out of the oven and let cool down in the pan for about 15-20 minutes, then carefully take out and let cool down completely on a wire rack.

    5. Roast the almond slivers in a dry pan until fragrant and slightly browned. Remove from the heat and let cool down. In a small bowl mix confectioner’s sugar with cream cheese and vanilla extract – you should get a nice smooth mixture. Add some milk if it is too thick. Glaze the cake and sprinkle with the almonds.

    1. Den Ofen auf 175°C (350°F) vorheizen. Eine Gugelhupfform einfetten und mit Mehl ausstäuben. Zur Seite stellen. Karotten schälen und fein raspeln.

    2. In einer großen Schüssel das Mehl mit dem Backpulver, Zucker, Zimt und Salz vermischen. Das Öl und den Vanille Extrakt zugeben und verrühren, bis alles gut verbunden ist. Die Eier einzeln nach und nach zugeben und jedes mal gut verrühren. Gemahlene Mandeln und Haselnüsse zugeben und verrühren. Die geraspelten Karotten zugeben und unterheben. Zur Seite stellen.

    3. In einer kleineren Schüssel den Frischkäse mit Zucker, Vanille Extrakt, Ei und Speisestärke zu einer glatten Masse verrühren.

    4. Vom Teig etwa 3/4 in die Form füllen und am Rand etwas nach oben drücken – es soll nach Möglichkeint eine kleine Mulde entstehen. Die Frischkäsemischung vorsichtig in diese Mulde füllen – ist der Teig nicht fest genug, dann vorsichtig löffelweise die Füllung in einem Ring auf den Teig geben und versuchen genügen Abstand zum Rand zu lassen. Die Füllung mit dem Löffel vorsichtig etwas in den Teig drücken. Den Rest des Teiges auf dieser Frischkäsefüllung verteilen – es sollte möglichst nichts mehr von der Füllung zu sehen sein. Im Ofen ca. 1 Stunde backen. Herausnehmen und in der Form etwa 15-20 Minuten abkühlen lassen, dann auf ein Kuchengitter stürzen und komplett auskühlen lassen.

    5. Die Mandelstifte in einer Pfanne ohne Fett anrösten, bis sie etwas Farbe bekommen haben und anfangen zu duften. Zur Seite stellen und abkühlen lassen. In einer kleinen Schüssel den Puderzucker mit Frischkäse und Vanille Extrakt vermischen. Die Masse sollte eine dickflüssige Konsistenz haben – ggf. Milch zugeben zum Verdünnen. Die Glasur auf dem ausgekühlen Kuchen verteilen und mit den Mandelstiften bestreuen.
