How to cook carrot pie in the oven - step-by-step recipe with photos
- We begin preparations by breaking eggs into a container. It doesn't really matter what size or temperature they are. I’m telling you, this is the easiest way to prepare it.
- We add sugar to the eggs because we are preparing a sweet cake.
- Using a fork, beat the egg mixture. And we don’t even beat it as much as we mix it until smooth. There is no need to achieve lush foam and dirty the mixer in vain. Just a dozen circular movements with a fork and you can add the following ingredients.
- Our main product is carrots. Two medium vegetables are enough. The main thing is that they are juicy. Grate the carrots on a medium grater. If you grate it coarser, then the pieces will not have time to bake and everything will not be as tasty as you would like. Also, if the carrots do not have time to bake due to large pieces, the cake will have a carrot smell. We don't need that. So arm yourself with a medium grater (you can even have a small one if you want) and three.
- Pour in odorless vegetable oil.
- Now it's flour. Its quantity may vary slightly. based on the juiciness of the carrots you used. But on average, half a glass should be enough for you.
- Vanilla sugar for aroma and taste. Add baking powder to make the cake fluffy and porous.
- Mix the dough and it is ready to use.
- Grease the baking dish with vegetable or butter. Sprinkle with flour, semolina or oatmeal.
- Pour in the batter, leaving some room to allow the pastry to rise during cooking. Place the mold in an oven preheated to 190 degrees and bake the cake at this temperature for about 35-40 minutes.
- After 40 minutes I got this beauty. Leave to cool.
- Then you can shake the cake out of the mold and serve, sprinkled with powdered sugar.
- The appetizing pieces beckon you to try. The crumb is porous, loose and bright. The color is really beautiful. Cheerful and autumnal. But not the autumn one that makes you depressed, but the one that is joyful and cheerful. Tea, cocoa, milk or coffee will be a great addition. Although, you can make it more complicated by preparing carrot-orange or apple-carrot juice. And remember that it is not only healthy, but also tasty.

Carrots have been added to baked goods for a long time. At one time it replaced sugar. Then they began to add it to add color and taste.
It is believed that the first carrot cake was baked by the Italian chef Picascio. In general, such pies are very popular in England and America.
Although our family has nothing to do with these countries, we also really like these pies.
I decided to invite you to bake a carrot cake using this simple and best recipe for me. I hope you like it too.
Carrot filling for pies
- Peel the carrots and grate them on a medium grater. Sprinkle it with sugar.
- We clean it, grate it and put it in a frying pan to fry for about 5 minutes until soft with a tablespoon of butter, sprinkled with sugar. After cooling, beat in the egg and mix.
- Mix grated carrots with a small amount of sugar, raisins, dried apricots, figs or prunes. Dried fruits can be chopped or passed through a meat grinder.
Today I will use the simplest option, since I immediately said that we are preparing a basic recipe, and leaving experiments in this area for the future.
Peel and wash the carrots.
Grate it using a medium or coarse grater if the vegetables are young.
Divide the dough into parts.
We make a flat cake from the dough, spread the filling with carrots.
Sprinkle with sugar.
We pinch the edges to form a pie.
Grease the baking dish with butter.
Place the pies in the mold.
Brush them with egg beaten with sugar. By the way, I already told you how to grease baked goods if you don’t have eggs. You can use this information, especially since the culinary experiment proved that all methods turned out to be good.
We leave them to grow (literally 5-10 minutes) and put the mold in the oven and bake sweet carrot pies in the oven for about 20 minutes at a temperature of 160 degrees.
Cool the finished baked goods and serve. I hope you enjoy the carrot pies in the oven.
I don’t know a single family that doesn’t love baking. Especially the pies. I usually bake with cabbage, potatoes or sweets, but I wanted something unusual, so I tried the recipe - pies with carrots. This is something. Simple, fast and tasty. My son ordered a repeat. Thanks for the recipe.
Step-by-step instruction
- The pie dough is made fairly quickly. In order not to wait until the oven warms up, we immediately turn it on to 180°.
- Dry the nuts a little. To do this, fry it briefly in a frying pan or place it on a baking sheet and put it in the oven for 6-8 minutes.
- Place the nuts in a bag, distribute them in one layer and roll them over them several times with a rolling pin. Or cut the nuts with a knife. I like the feel of small pieces in baked goods. You can grind them more finely using a blender.
- Grate the washed carrots. Here too, as you like. Finely grated carrots are distributed more evenly throughout the dough and give a more saturated color.
- Remove the zest from the orange using the fine side of a grater, without touching the white pulp.
- Squeeze the juice out of the orange. To do this, it is better to use a juicer or citrus press.
- Mix carrots, orange zest and nuts.
- Pour oil, orange juice into one bowl and break eggs. Take a whisk and mix well, beating lightly.
- Sift the flour into another container. Add cinnamon, salt, sugar and baking powder (baking powder), which can be replaced with 1.5 tsp. soda, slaked with any vinegar or lemon juice. Mix well.
- Pour the dry mixture into the bowl with the liquid ingredients. Stir with a whisk or spoon until smooth, breaking up any lumps.
- Transfer the carrot and nut mixture into the dough. Mixing thoroughly, distribute it evenly throughout the dough.
- Place the unusual dough in the mold (pre-grease). I use a detachable one with a diameter of 21 cm.
- Cook for 50 minutes and check readiness: pierce it with a match, and if it comes out dry, then the carrot pie is ready.
- You can cool and serve as is, but it will be tastier if you grease the pie with butter cream or pour sour cream icing.

Method for making carrot cake
Let's start preparing the carrot cake recipe.
1.
To do this, dissolve yeast and sugar in heated milk and mix well.
Make sure there are no drafts in the kitchen - they will prevent the future dough from rising. Remember that it is very capricious, and therefore you will need to handle it carefully. Do not fill it with flour, but knead it with gentle movements. Our grandmothers even advise not to make sharp sounds when working with dough. According to them, the dough is “scared”, as a result of which it does not turn out as lively and fluffy. Practice shows that this statement is true, so we try not to make noise.
3.
After 1.5-2 hours, after our dough has settled, sift the flour through a sieve to enrich it with oxygen and remove lumps.
4.
Now melt the butter and margarine and, without allowing them to cool, mix together with the flour and melted yeast, kneading the dough. Add flour little by little, mix with your hand, you can help yourself beat with your fist - 5-10 minutes.
5.
When the dough begins to move away from the walls and “puff” (this means that it is saturated with oxygen), place it again, covered with a towel, for 1.5-2 hours.
6.
When the pie dough has doubled in size, place it on a floured counter or baking sheet to cut. If you need to bake a large pie, the bottom layer will need to be sprinkled with starch.
7.
Then add the filling and let rise in a warm place for 15 minutes. After this, brush with beaten egg using a brush to make the finished pastry shiny.

Yeast dough and unusual fillings, which can be sweet or savory, are the key to the success of baking.
The recipe for pies will especially appeal to housewives who monitor proper nutrition and care about the health of loved ones. After all, carrots are not only a tasty delicacy, but also incredibly healthy. The vegetable makes the pies simply a storehouse of vitamins and minerals.
It is enough to eat two carrots a day to completely saturate the body with vitamin A. By consuming root vegetables, digestion will be normalized, vision will improve, cholesterol levels in the blood will decrease, and facial skin will become elastic and beautiful. Therefore, pies stuffed with carrots are a very healthy and nutritious pastry that can be prepared at home in 90 minutes.
Making straight yeast dough
To prepare carrot pies, the first step is to make straight yeast dough. All ingredients used for the dough should be at room temperature.
- To do this, you need to heat water and kefir in the microwave to a temperature of 36-40 degrees.
- Remove the eggs from the refrigerator in advance.
- Sift the flour through a sieve at least twice.
- Then, in a small bowl, dilute the yeast in heated water until it is completely dissolved, and add sugar.
- Meanwhile, take 150 grams of butter, transfer it to a small enamel pan and melt over low heat. Then the oil needs to cool a little.
- Pour salt into the sifted flour and stir well. You cannot add salt directly to the yeast, otherwise the dough will not rise well.
- Now you can proceed directly to preparing the dough. To do this, you will need spacious dishes (saucepan, bowl, bowl).
- Pour warm kefir into the prepared container and add yeast dissolved in water.
- Next, add the eggs to the kefir mixture and mix everything well.
- After this, you need to gradually add half the flour in parts, stirring the yeast base with a spoon.
- When the base becomes homogeneous, pour in the melted butter and knead the dough.
- Then add the rest of the flour in small portions and knead the dough with your hands.
- As soon as the dough comes away from the sides of the bowl, place it on a floured surface. Knead the dough for another 10-12 minutes.
- Form the dough into a “bun”, place in a pan and wrap in a towel. The dough should rest in a warm place for 60 minutes.
It is ideal to place the yeast base for carrot pies in a slow cooker and set the “Dough” or “Warming” mode. You can use the “Multi-cook” program and independently set the temperature to 40 degrees and the cooking time to 60 minutes. You can also place the pan with the dough in a warm bath or on the stove with the oven on.
You also need to remember that the dough “loves” silence, so there is no need to slam the door loudly or shout. The yeast base will be elastic, soft, pliable, but runny. There is no need to add more flour.
Preparing carrot filling: sweet or salty
While the dough is “resting” and rising, there is time to prepare the carrot filling for the pies.
- To do this, you need to wash the carrots well, peel them and grate them on a coarse grater. It is very convenient to do this using a food processor with a special attachment for chopping vegetables.
- Place the grated carrots on a hot frying pan and pour in a glass of water.
- Then gradually add sugar to the carrots, stirring the contents of the pan with a wooden spoon.
- When the carrots are warm, crack two eggs into the bowl and begin stirring quickly.
- After 2 minutes, turn off the heat.
- Place the carrots in a sieve to remove excess juice and liquid.
The sweet layer for the pies is ready.
Carrot pies can also be prepared with a salty filling using the ingredients given in the recipe. In this case, sugar should be replaced with a teaspoon of salt.
- Boil the eggs hard and chop into cubes.
- Also chop the carrots into small cubes.
- Simmer the carrots in a frying pan in butter with 30 ml of water until tender.
- At the end, salt and cool the prepared root vegetables.
