You can see all sorts of wonderful warm colours through the window and somehow everything looks like a fairy tale. Every Saturday, not far from where I live, there is an open farmer&#8217;s market. Farmers from nearby villages and towns are coming and selling what they have grown &#8211; it&#8217;s mostly fruit and veg, but there are also little stands with honey, jams, different types of cheese and salami.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7230 size-full\" title=\"Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting\" src=\"https:\/\/harryandlexy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Carrot-Cake-with-Cream-Cheese-Frosting.png\" alt=\"Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting\" width=\"960\" height=\"638\" srcset=\"https:\/\/harryandlexy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Carrot-Cake-with-Cream-Cheese-Frosting-150x100.png 150w, https:\/\/harryandlexy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Carrot-Cake-with-Cream-Cheese-Frosting-200x133.png 200w, https:\/\/harryandlexy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Carrot-Cake-with-Cream-Cheese-Frosting-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/harryandlexy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Carrot-Cake-with-Cream-Cheese-Frosting-400x266.png 400w, https:\/\/harryandlexy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Carrot-Cake-with-Cream-Cheese-Frosting-450x299.png 450w, https:\/\/harryandlexy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Carrot-Cake-with-Cream-Cheese-Frosting-600x399.png 600w, https:\/\/harryandlexy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Carrot-Cake-with-Cream-Cheese-Frosting-768x510.png 768w, https:\/\/harryandlexy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Carrot-Cake-with-Cream-Cheese-Frosting-800x532.png 800w, https:\/\/harryandlexy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Carrot-Cake-with-Cream-Cheese-Frosting.png 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<!-- Start GADSWPV-3.9 --><div id=\"ga_os_10859895\" style=\"text-align: center; overflow: visible; visibility: visible;\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n     apntag.anq.push(function() {\r\n        apntag.showTag('ga_os_10859895');\r\n        });\r\n<\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<br><!-- End GADSWPV-3.9 --><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Last time there were so many crates full of different types of pears that I bought some straight away to bake something&#8230; Of course, back then I didn&#8217;t know what to make exactly. But after a friend of mine brought me a whole bag of carrots from her mum&#8217;s garden, I immediately had this picture in my head of making a rich and moist cake combining the taste of carrots and pears. The result was this amazing autumn cake with cinnamon scent.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This pear and carrot cake is very light and has an unobtrusive sweet taste, it has a very small amount of sugar. It is super quick to make, especially if you have a food processor and you don&#8217;t need to grate the carrots by hand. It&#8217;s a great breakfast or an afternoon snack, with a cup of tea or coffee to keep it company. You can store it in the fridge for a few days or you can even freeze it.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><strong>Carrot and Pear Cake Ingredients:<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>265 g carrots<\/li>\n<li>225 g flour<\/li>\n<li>200 g pears<\/li>\n<li>150 g sugar<\/li>\n<li>100 ml vegetable or sunflower oil<\/li>\n<li>85 g walnuts<\/li>\n<li>4 eggs<\/li>\n<li>2 tsp. baking powder<\/li>\n<li>2 tsp. cinnamon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><strong>Ingredients for the cream cheese frosting:<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>200\u00a0g cream cheese<\/li>\n<li>60 g icing sugar<\/li>\n<li>1 tsp. cinnamon for sprinkling<\/li>\n<li>\u00bd lemon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"> <script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Ad 3 -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:728px;height:90px\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8204055174938380\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2323002750\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">Carrots and Pear Cake Preparation:<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wash and peel the carrot and pears.

I prefer to use a grater with big holes as the cake gets fluffier this way.

You&#8217;ll lick your fingers in both cases.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">When you&#8217;re adding the frosting, you can smear it smoothly or to shape waves for a more artistic
