Grease a baking pan with butter and dust the pan with Maida, Tap off the excess flour . Place a parchment paper on the greased mould and set aside. Mean while grate carrot and set aside.
Mix curd, olive oil, milk and sugar and set aside. In another bowl sieve Maida, baking powder ,baking soda and salt together and set aside. Now along with the wet ingredients add in vanilla essence and finally fold in the carrot gently.
Now gently mix the flour mixture along with the wet ingredients and pour into the prepared cake pan and top with nuts.
Bake for about 20 -25 mins or till the tooth pick comes out clean when inserted.
Notes
Baking time again differs from oven to oven, depends on the tin too. mine took around 30 mins flat for the cake to bake fully but what I would suggest is check at 20 mins then proceed accordingly.
Don't skip to sieve the Maida , Baking powder, Baking soda and Salt .As sieving combines all the dry ingredients really well.
I added 1 cup Maida fully , but you can add ¼ cup of wheat flour as well also if you are more health conscious.You can increase or decrease Sugar as per your taste as the Carrot itself is sweet.
