Carrot Cake

1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
11/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 cups flour
1/2 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3 cups grated carrots
1 cup raisins (optional)
1/2 cup walnuts (optional)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
dash of vanilla essence

Cream butter and sugar. Add carrots and lemon juice, vanilla essence and mix together. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, walnuts, raisins and cinnamon. Mix thoroughly. Bake in a greased tin for 1 hour 15 minutes at at gas mark 4 or 350 degrees.

For Banana Bread - substitute carrots with six (6) well ripe bananas. Mash bananas with a fork and add lemon juice before adding to creamed butter and sugar.

I created these recipes many years ago when I did Home Economics. The raisins and walnuts makes it truly delicious.
