Hi there,i am having a possibly similar problem with a mushy 2" high
carrot cake.
after 1.5 hrs baking at 180C the inside looks like a pudding instead
of the expected baked cake texture.the outside is almost burnt.

i used a 1' wide deep ceramic pan (without a hole) and stuck to the
recipie (100g carrots,2 banana,50g raisins,225g flour,1 tps baking
powder,150 brown sugar,walnuts 50g,150g oil & 2 eggs)

any ideas what i can try to improve the texture? thanks


Howdy,

You describe the baking temperature as 180C...

Can you say how you measured that temp?

I ask because if you believe that to be the temperature of
the oven because you "set" it to that temp, we may have a
solution to your problem:

Many ovens slip out of calibration rather quickly, and
rather significantly.

All the best,
