    Hey Amy! I don't see that anyone provided the Baby Food Carrot Cake recipe you were looking for...I found one!
    The recipe calls for carrot baby food, or a combination of carrot, apricot, and apple baby food. You can also use pears, too. Feel free to play with the balance of ingredients if you want to use the natural sweetness of fruit purees.
    Note: This cake recipe is NOT meant for babies. Baby food is simply an ingredient.
    Ingredients
    3 large eggs
    1 1/2 cups sugar
    1 cup vegetable oil
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
    2 teaspoons baking soda
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    2 junior-size jars baby food carrots, or 1 small jar each of carrots, applesauce, and apricots
    For the Frosting:
    2 tablespoons margarine, or unsalted butter, softened
    3 ounces cream cheese, softened
    2 cups confectioners' sugar
    2 teaspoons milk, or more as needed
    Steps to Make It
    Heat the oven to 350 F. Grease and flour a 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan.
    In a medium bowl, mix eggs, sugar, and oil together until well blended.
    Add the dry ingredients and vanilla extract and beat until just blended.
    Fold in the baby food.
    Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan.
    Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until a cake tester comes out with a few moist crumbs.
    Frosting
    In a bowl of a stand mixer or using a hand mixer, cream together the margarine (or butter) and cream cheese at medium speed.
    On low speed, add the confectioners' sugar and the milk.
    Mix until smooth and creamy. Add more milk as needed to create a spreadable frosting.
    Variations
    Carrot cake is also delicious with some of the following optional ingredients:
    1/2 cup chopped toasted walnuts or pecans folded into the batter, or 1 cup walnut or pecan halves used for garnish on top of the cake
    1/2 cup to 3/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut sprinkled on top of the frosted cake
    1/2 cup raisins folded into the batter
    1 small can of crushed pineapple in its juices
    Additional spices such as ginger, cloves, allspice and/or nutmeg
    How to Store and Freeze Baby Food Carrot Cake
    This cake will keep, covered, at room temperature for 3 to 5 days. You can refrigerate it if desired, but it may dry out a little bit.
    Carrot cake will freeze well if wrapped (try it in individual slices) in foil and placed in a zip-close freezer bag. Defrost at room temperature or in the refrigerator. Cake will keep for up to 6 months, but the sooner you consume it, the better.
    Love Ya!! Gina W. - Winston Salem, NC

    New subscriber! My sister turned me on to y'all. We're up here in southern West "By God" Virginia. We're in our 60s, disabled, but still love to cook when we can. She made one of your recipes yesterday with the red beans, smoked sausage, and ground beef. My brother in law has become a finicky eater and the last count she mentioned he'd had was four servings! I'm gonna try with this cake. It looks awful good! Y'all are our kind of people. God, family, country! And not afraid of a little mud on your boots! God bless y'all!

      I use to entertain a lot, when my husband was alive and we lived in a different place and time. I would make it all from scratch and it was fun and I enjoyed it. However, I had so many dishes when everyone left and I felt like I was so tired and couldn’t enjoy everyone. I know exactly what you’re saying! Im glad you found a good balance of doing mostly from scratch, but not all. Shortcuts are good and it’s still homemade with love. You work days ahead of the dinner and then it’s over so quickly!

I love to watch your cooking/farm videos but I especially love how you share your life with us. I know God brought you to my life. Carrot Cake is my brother, Jeffery’s favorite cake. He would love this. Thanks for sharing your Easter preparations with your boatload of friends. I know your family appreciates all your hard work. You think of everything to make things special. You are always my ☀️ Sunshine. I initially said, first things first was your hair, but the truth is…the first thing and greatest thing is why we celebrate Resurrection Sunday. The saddest day in history became the most glorious day 3 days later! 🙌🏻 A sinless Christ had given His blood 🩸 which covers our sins. Then the stone was rolled away and our Lord was not in the tomb!! Love you, sweet Amy. 💜💜🙏🏻🙏🏻🐇🐇
