Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 365°F. Grease and flour a Bundt pan and set aside.
- Mix together the wet ingredients, including the sugar, oil, eggs, carrots and the juice of the oranges.
- Sift in the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger and mix until fully combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and bake for 30-40 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean with a few moist crumbs.
