Carrot Almond Cake For Passover Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 7-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.
• In a mixing bowl, cream the margarine or butter with the sugars until light and fluffy. Separate the eggs and beat in the yolks only. Sift in the cake meal, potato flour, and baking powder, and fold in carefully. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until soft peaks form. Add a spoonful of the egg white to the cake batter and mix in thoroughly. Now fold in the rest of the eggs whites, taking care not to knock out any air. Spoon the mixture into your prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes until risen and golden.
• After the cake has cooled, slice in half horizontally and spread the bottom half with jam. Replace the top half and sprinkle superfine sugar over the top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Heavily oil an eight-cup tube pan or bundt pan. Dust with matzoh meal.
• Beat egg yolks until thick. Add two-thirds cup sugar and continue beating until pale yellow and very creamy. Beat in the honey. Stir in the lemon juice.
• Fold in the carrots and almonds.
• Mix cake meal with salt and cinnamon and mix into batter until just combined.
• Beat egg whites until they hold peaks but are not dry. Gently fold beaten egg whites into the batter. Transfer batter to the baking pan and bake 1 hour and 15 minutes, until nicely browned and springy to the touch.
• Place on a rack and allow to cool completely in the pan. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the edges to loosen the cake, then invert onto a serving plate. Dust with a tablespoon of granulated sugar before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Put the almonds and sugar in a food processor and chop as finely as possible. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Break up the ladyfingers into pieces, about an inch long, place them in the food processor and grind to a powder. Add to the almonds and sugar in the mixing bowl. Cut the carrots into pieces about an inch long, and chop in the food processor as finely as possible. Add to the bowl, mixing them well with the other ingredients.
• Add the baking powder, salt, and the Amaretto liqueur and mix well. Add the egg yolks, mixing them in until they are well distributed with the other ingredients.
• Whip the egg whites with an electric mixer or by hand until they form stiff peaks. Take a couple of tablespoons of the beaten egg whites and mix them with the ingredients in the bowl to soften the mixture a bit. Pour the rest of the egg whites onto the mixture and carefully fold them in with a rubber spatula.
• Grease the bottom and sides of a 10 inch springform pan with the butter and dust it with flour. Pour the batter into the pan, then shake the pan a bit until the batter is evenly distributed.
• Place the pan in the upper level of the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out dry when inserted into the cake.
• When the cake is cool, cut it into 8 to 12 pieces and serve with a dollop of whipped cream.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
• Whisk together the matzo flour, baking soda, baking powder (see Note), and salt in a large mixing bowl.
• In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, white sugar, margarine, vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon of lemon extract, lemon juice, vegetable oil, and food coloring with an electric mixer set on medium speed until smooth; pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture. Stir until combined into a smooth batter, and pour into the prepared loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set and lightly browned, about 45 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf will come out clean. Cool completely, then remove from the pan.
• Place 1 cup of confectioners' sugar in a bowl. In a separate small bowl, mix the non-dairy creamer with water, and stir in 1 tablespoon of confectioners' sugar. Stir the creamer mixture into the confectioners' sugar by teaspoons until the mixture forms an even, workable glaze. Mix in 1/2 teaspoon of lemon extract. Spread the glaze over the cooled lemon loaf. Allow to set, and serve in 1-inch slices.
