THE DOLCE VITA DIARIES EP4: Italian Almond & Olive Oil Carrot Cake
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ย. 2024
- Buongiorno! Welcome to my updated Dolce Vita Diaries series, set in Positano, on the Amalfi Coast in Italy. You've all been asking me for ages to publish cooking videos and cooking is how I met many of you through my first Italian cooking TV shows, so I'm excited to share some of my favourite Italian style recipes with you.
This is a recipe for simple, moist, gluten-free carrot cake, using olive oil and almond flour, with a creamy mascarpone frosting or icing. This is the best carrot recipe - not too dry, not some sponge-like thing you get on planes or from the supermarket that barely even has any carrot in it - this is textured, moist, slightly crisp on the outside and spiced with cinnamon. I do recommend grating your own carrots because store-bought pre-grated carrots have lost all their moisture so they would changed the result of the cake. I have sometimes cooked this with wholemeal (wholewheat) flour, when I can't afford almond meal. In that case, I just add the flour by sight and intuition until the batter resembles the same texture you see in the video. In fact, I rarely measure anything because there are so many variables like the size of your eggs or how juicy the carrots are, so it's good to get a familiarity with how your batter should look rather than just relying on measurement. In Italian they call it cooking "a occhio" or by sight. Sometimes I'll do half almond flour, half plain flour. Basically, the almonds are making this cake super moist and giving it that delicate crumb that you find in a torta caprese.
You'll often find carrot cake served on the Amalfi Coast in hotels and bed and breakfasts for "colazione", although people don't associate it as being a very Italian dish. I love it because carrots are so easy - they are almost always in season and cheap to buy. Plus I may not always have butter in the fridge but I ALWAYS have olive oil.
CAKE INGREDIENTS:
250g brown sugar
1/2 cup olive oil
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla bean extract
250g almond meal
1/2 teaspoon baking soda (bicarbonate of soda)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 heaped teaspoon cinnamon
1 pinch salt
250g carrots roughly grated (2-3 cups depending on how much carrot you like in your cake)
FROSTING INGREDIENTS:
500g mascarpone
1/4 cup icing sugar (powdered sugar)
1.5 cups cream (or as much as necessary until you get a spreadable texture)
1 teaspoon vanilla bean extract
METHOD:
1. Preheat your oven to 180degrees Celsius or 350degreesF) and line a 20cm spring form cake tin with baking paper.
2.Grate carrots first because this is hardest part and it's good to get it over and done with. ;) Try to grate them on the largest 'setting' of your grater. If you only have a grater that grates them very fine, then later on, just add about another 50g more of the almond meal to make up for the extra moisture.
3. Mix sugar and oil in a bowl.
4. Beat in eggs, one at a time.
5. Add vanilla.
6. In another bowl, mix almond meal, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
7. Combine the dry ingredients with the wet batter and the carrots. Stir until only just combined.
8. Pour into cake tin and cook in the oven for about 40 minutes or until the top is golden and crisp and a knife comes out clean when inserted into the centre. (I find different ovens affect my cooking times tremendously so just keep an eye on it after 30 minutes). Keep in mind, it will never feel as dry as a cake made with flour so don't worry if it looks a little moist on the inside even after 45 minutes.
9. As I said in the video, try to keep your mascarpone and cream out of the fridge while you are making the cake so that they are at a similar room temperature. Mascarpone can give the appearance of curdling if you mix it with a liquid of a different temperature or if you beat it too much or too fast. So don't do this part in the food processor. Just stir the icing sugar (and vanilla if you want - I forgot to mention this in the video) into the mascarpone and then add the cream, stirring slowly, until you get a texture that is stiff and spreadable.
10. To halve the cake, I cut carefully with a knife and then slide the pan from the springform tin in between the layers to lift it off safely without breaking the delicate crumb! This is going to be easier and more manageable when the cake has cooled so don't try to do it when it's hot out of the oven.
11. Ice your cake with the frosting and if you want, add flowers to the top with a little tin foil around the stems so you don't have the stalks mixing with the cream. And between the smell of vanilla, brown sugar and cinnamon, the decadent layers and the opulence of fresh flowers I promise anyone invited to tea or dessert will gasp, sigh and hug you. Xxx Kylie

Kylie Flavell ;
Thank you so much for this recipe and the inspiration you give!
I know i'm late but I just can't stop feeling happy and lucky to find one aesthetic, creative, beautiful, authentic, gorgeous person like you. The videography bro is freaking good and your personality and lifestyle just fit in perfectly . As I wish to have a best friend like you and as I'm a history and Provence culture lover , I hope and aspire to live this simple yet beautiful lifestyle. Having my little appartement in the Provence with my garden and endless gatherings . Such beauty is priceless.
I was think just the same, after watching the vlog , simply gordgeous.

K Beer 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hi Kylie, just ran across your channel and what a wonderful surprise. I have a dream of visiting Abruzzo, Italy in about 3yrs. for my 70th birthday. Anyway I love Carrot Cake and have a very simple recipe so I converted it to add some of your ingredients. I used some olive oil and some finely ground almond meal. OMG! It turned out even more incredible than my original recipe. I live in Sparks, NV at 4500 ft. elevation so almost all my recipes have be be tweaked to turn out right. Decided to try Banana Bread with almond meal/flour. Couldn’t get Almond flour at the store so ground the Almond meal in my little food processor. Banana bread turned out great, too. Love your real-ness! 😊
I don't know much about cooking but the place you live in is really heaven on earth, I want to go there so bad, I think I will one day, will you cook for me when I visit positano
sam It really is heaven!
Can't stop thinking about this cake . . it's so beautiful 💖💖
Omg yessssss. More more more cooking!
Jade Brooks 👩🏼🍳😘😘😘😘
I'm laying in bed this morning watching your videos! Your whimsical and romantic way of cinema has me on the verge of tears. As a fellow traveler, working towards my next trip, I thank for fueling my wanderlust!
Beautiful cake. I would love a slice.
I WISH!!! I could have tasted just ONE slice of that CAKE!!! Fabulous video!
If you made the cake l would try to eat a piece. I will try your recipe. It sounds absolutely wonderful!

Kylie, your video which full of sunshine is just what I needed as we had torrential rain in Glasgow today and your video was terrific! Not only the film photography with the scenery looking fabulous, but especially the sea being that beautiful blue colour I have painted the sea on a canvas and attempting to copy the colour of it is also tricky although not impossible. I am looking forward to the second part of your cooking.
2:53 a.m.: Seeing Kylie's video in the subscription feed. That means no sleep and watching it! :)
ChicoreeChidori you’re so funny 😂 Buonanotte!! 😘

Hi. Love the baking videos. I will try to make this. Not sure it will be as good as yours. You do have an accent. I am from thr United Kingdom and very British lol. I love Malta.. It is so lovely and beautful. The food is amazing and thr people I love them. They are so chilled out n thry love us brits lol. As we helped thrn through the war. I have been to Malta twice and they have some amazing cakes n desserts which are lovely. I am so into black olives now more so going to malta and I love sundries tomatoes also. I did go to scilly whilst we were in malta we went to visit taurmena.. The place where the volcano is the place was so pretty. . You guys there in Italy seem nice and have a love n zeel for life. Which is good.
Lovely video! ❤️ Will definitely make this recipe. It’s so nice to see Positano, going back again this autumn and can’t wait 😊
beckiiemacky thank you Beckie!
Dal titolo credevo cucinassi qualcosa simile alle Camille del Mulino Bianco! 😄
Che meraviglia di torta!
Greetings from America! Enjoyed this delicious video very much and will give it a go this week. Doubling recipe...doubles the wow factor. The cake looks gorgeous and I love your hair!!

imane maghazi Ooh thank you! Thank you! 🙏💞✨
This was luscious in every way, Kylie. Thank you for pouring your love into your work - It shows. ♥️ I’m definitely making this cake! 😋 xo
We need more of these. Good stuff!!!
Santina Smith thanks Santina ♥️
I LOVE your carrot cake recipe - def going to give this a try today !!!! Love your videos and your zest for life and adventure xxxxx
Omg, that looked beautiful with the flowers 💐 🎂 and I bet it tasted beautiful too! 🍰 thank you Kylie, I am definitely going to try! x 😊
Kylie, it was such a coincidence! I was watching again the Dolce Vita series and you post this. Your cake looks amazing, your video is a pleasure to our eyes as always. I sent you a big hug!
Kari Ola Yay! So appreciate you watching my work!
@@KylieFlavell Oh, Kylie! You don't know how your work touch my soul. I follow you since a couple of years ago and I truly appreciate you as a person and a creator. Now it's not a great time for me, that's why today I went to Hooked up and the Dolce Vita series (diaries). Your videos make me happy, give me hope... Y renuevan mis ganas de cambiar mi vida, de realmente vivir (I'm sorry, my english is not that good, but I remember you have a good level of spanish). I thank you for that. Kisses from Peru.
Kari Ola Muchas gracias! Todo en esta vida es temporal, así que, si las cosas van bien, disfrútalas, porque no durarán siempre. Y si las cosas van mal, no te preocupes, no van a durar para siempre tampoco. La clave de todo es la paciencia. Solo respira y da un paso a la vez. I hope you feel better soon. You’re not alone. No estás sola!! 🤗😘
@@KylieFlavell Thank you so much, Kylie. That means a lot for me. I'll keep that in mind, I promise. You're such a sweetheart ❤️
And yes, I'm not alone, I realized that when I found your content, you know? This romantic, kind and soulful way to see and live life. And people all around the world with a heart who understands it. This is all what is right. Thank you for everything, Kylie! I wish you all the best!
You can easily transport it in a portable ice cooler after you wrap it in a wax paper cylinder and secure it with ice packs (or other soft picnic goodies) so it doesn't move. You might need to remove the roses though...
There’s something comforting about your videos 💙
Jojo brown I hope so - that’s always the goal!
I always make my husband carrot cake from scratch. I even stir clockwise for love and good luck. This time I will use EVOO and mascarpone. LOVE your videos.
Amalfi love!
💗💙💗💕
I am in love!
Positano is my true love!
💗💙💗💕
Love the aesthetics!! 😍 Your joy for baking definitely came through and it was really endearing to watch, happy to be a brand new subscriber!! 🙋♀️
What a lovely creation, Kylie! Your videos have been making me want to travel... now this one makes me want to bake!! 😄😄💗
Sticking the flowers in, is a good idea to avoid the sliding while its get transported, using alu. foil around it inside a box and best cheating is, keep it very cold.
Doing it every Christmas, walking 1 km, 45 min train and 10min of drive on a bumpy road...
Visually decadent, I like that term...
Neutrality & Mutualism with AI & Robots So glad to know I’m not alone in cake transportation! I once carried a cake as a surprise for my mother on a bicycle, on a train, on my lap on an international plane and then in a taxi to a little village in France. But it’s so nice to arrive at family’s door with a cake in your hands.
Ok. Since Kylie couldn't (or wouldn't) bake me this cake, I used the recipe and it came out great! Used the "half recipe." I only had to convert the grams to cups. Very nice! Used multicolored carrots, lovely.
Stunning!
Very good recipe, thank you for inspiring me to make this delightful cake. Note: I always use olive oil when making desserts, olive oil is the best. Stay safe.
Im so happy to have found your channel! So authentic.
Wow!! Looking good!! 😋
You are awesome, love your videos. I'm a commercial photographer in California, so I really appreciate the whole look
and feel of your work! Will be leaving for RIo de Janeiro in a few days, hope to get some photos to keep and meet some people while there!
OMG, your videos are so beautiful! You are very talented in your craft. I'm impressed. As I mentioned in another video, I get nostalgic watching your videos and want to return to Italy after this Corona craziness goes away. My wife and I went in 2010. Now we would like to go back and take our 3 girls - maybe when they are a little older. Que belleza! I am working late grading chemistry papers. I think I am going to try and bake that carrot cake and compliment it with some nice coffee. Looks delicious. My wife is a great cook also. I think you just gained a new fan. It's a beautiful life! E una dolce vita!
Take your cake and decorate it at your friends house. You can buy cake boxes....might make it easier. I can't wait to try making this cake x ❤
Kylie you deserve a million subs, your work are inspiring.
your videos just remind me how like I am to be Italian. thanks
Ooo... so going to try the receipt Kylie! I hope my Italian man would love it ❤️❤️ I love your zest for La Dolce Vita
Thank you for such a beautiful video! A work of art.
I made this cake and it came out fantastic!
Thank you Kylie
I made this last weekend and it was a big hit with the spouse and the best carrot cake I have ever had. I was reluctant to slice in half so I made a half recipe of the icing. After putting the cake in the oven I turned to clean up the kitchen and saw a bowl of shredded carrots! OOPS! I quickly took the cake from the oven and tried to add carrots and mix in with a fork. It was not working so I reverted to Kylie’s TACTILE food prep and stuck one hand in the batter as I added carrots with the other. Success. As you eat it savor the taste, textures and nutrients and try to forget that the cake has some 4,000 Cals. and the half recipe of icing is 2,000 Cals.
BEAUTIFUL 🍰 CAKE, KYLIE!!!
Looks so good, I use olive oil for baking often I think it makes a cake moist and succulent
Ciao Bella! I just found your channel after doing a quick search for “living in Italy” and wow! I love your style, cinematic approach and your topics! I plan to live in Italy next summer and feel absolutely PASSIONATE about Italy like you! Currently I’m learning the language. This will be my 3rd time in the chi try but I’m going to take your advice and prepare this entire year for my trip.
Thank you for your wonderful content! Maybe we can have a chance gelato or café if you’re around when I go! The cake looks lovely and I’m going to make it this weekend! Ciao!
That sounds delicious.
Yummmyyyyyyyyy❤
Beautiful Kylie!! 🌹🌹❤️❤️
Sto imparando Italiano. Una storia divertente. Ero con la mia amica e abbiamo fatto una torta di carrot. Quasi io ho dimenticato I carrot prima lei era mettere la nel forno. 😊
Nicole O Scott Brava!! It’s so good to try to use Italian whenever you can - even in TH-cam comments! This is how I learnt Italian - by constantly pushing myself to use it even when I didn’t need to. 😘🇮🇹
@@KylieFlavell grazie cara. Yes I find my writing when I relax and not think grammar grammar grammar it seems ok even if I mess up. Listening is better and while reading eg. A italian comprehension exercise or story is getting better.
But my speaking is still a trouble. I stammer so it's double hard for me to speak eventhough I know what I want to say. I know how to say io balbetto so that people know and are aware but it's still frustrating. I get anxious and nervous plus I'm a introvert so it's hard (however I can be chatty at times ... ambivert then) but I will keep trying.
Any other advice for a intermediate learner. On ways to learn tenses but not get overwhelmed. I'm thinking of looking at what we use in english and finding equivalent I learnt that our 'were' is the imperfect subjunctive so that's interesting.
Also still find the imperfetto hard. Oh mio dio molto difficile per me. Ma continuerò provare.
Grazie bella! Xx
@@KylieFlavell I have a tip for you! To make sure your cake bakes evenly inside lift and tap the tin lightly a few times before putting it in the oven. This will ensure any air bubbles inside are gone. 😉😊
Why are you talented and gorgeous? And now I'm hungry!
Enjoyed the video...looks so good!
I’m 18, about to graduate high school and these videos really spoke to me. I want a life of pure happiness, not stress. I was just wondering do you stay in Airbnb’s or what? I’m thinking about spending a summer in the amalfi coast.
The cake looks delightful and delicious
Yep that's decadent ❤❤❤
Again beautiful movie. Thank you.
Louis Martin Merci!
