Thanks MJ. Some of my biscuit recipes have been over mixed lately. I'll try that.

I did the two loaf tins and it worked out really well - needed only about 40 mins cooking.

I thought I would review this as I made it for friends today.It's delicious and a very moist cake and everyone loved it.
I did a few changes to the recipe,used wholemeal flour,dark muscovado sugar and rapeseed oil.
It does bug me a bit when recipes just say "Butter a large baking pan"  :-X I used a deep 20cm loose bottomed cake tin lined with a parchment cake liner.As I use a fan forced oven I always reduce the temperature of a recipe by 20c so maybe that's why it took an extra 40 minutes. :-\
I would make it again :)

I have made this cake up twice in a week. Because I didn't think to check with this forum, with the first cake, I too had the problem of the cake not mixing properly. What I did today for my second cake was to prepare my carrot, nuts, pineapple, coconut and set all aside in a large mixing bowl. Then I followed the recipe to mix the oil, eggs, sugar and vanilla in the TM. Then I added the Flour, soda, baking powder, spices and salt in the TM and combined as per recipe. I poured the wet mix from the TM in on top of the ingredients in the large mixing bowl and combined using a wooden spoon and spatula. I divided the mixture between two, 8" square tins lined with baking paper and cooked these for 30minutes. Fantastic result this time - I won't be buying Sara Lee carrot cake ever again!!

Thanks ambroO, this sounds the perfect solution so let's hope others check here before making that recipe.
