Instructions
- Grease the base and sides of a 9x5-inch loaf pan with 1 tsp softened butter.
- Line the pan with parchment paper, pressing down to adhere. Set aside. (NOTE: The parchment should hang over two edges of the pan. This helps to easily remove cake after baking.)
- Peel, then grate carrot.
- Whisk together 2 cups flour, baking powder, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1/4 tsp salt, Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix and 1/2 tsp cinnamon in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Whisk together sour cream, maple syrup, white sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl until smooth, 1 min.
- Whisk 1/2 cup oil, eggs and carrots into wet mixture until combined.
- Slowly add flour mixture to wet mixture. Using a spatula, stir until batter is just combined and no floury streaks remain.
- Transfer batter to the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake cake in the middle of the oven until a knife inserted into the centre comes out mostly clean, 50-60 min. (TIP: Take cake out of the oven when a few moist crumbs still stay attached to knife!)
- Allow cake to cool in the pan for 10 min, then, using the parchment overhang, remove from the pan and place onto a wire rack to cool completely. (TIP: You can place cake in the fridge to help it cool down faster!)
- Zest, then juice the lemon.
- Add remaining softened butter and cream cheese to another large bowl.
- Beat with an electric hand mixer or whisk until light and creamy, 1-2 min.
- Beat in icing sugar, 1/2 tsp lemon zest and 2 tsp lemon juice until combined.
- Spread lemon cream cheese frosting over cooled loaf cake.
- Sprinkle pecans over top. (TIP: If desired, toast pecans in a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat until golden-brown, 3-4 min.)
- Cut cake into slices.
