This is carrot cake on a whole other level! Moist carrot cake is baked with a layer of sweet cream cheese and topped with a brown sugar walnut crumble. It creates the most delicious carrot coffee cake with everything you could ever want in one bite!<\/p>\n

What makes this carrot coffee cake so good?<\/h2>\n

This dessert basically has all of my favorite things \u2013 carrot cake, cheesecake, and a crunchy crumble topping.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Carrot Cake<\/strong> \u2013 The base is a moist and fluffy carrot cake with warm spices and loads of fresh grated carrots. I modeled this recipe off of my popular banana coffee cake<\/a> so it could be just as moist and delicious! <\/li>\n
  2. Sweet Cream Cheese<\/strong> \u2013 On top of the carrot cake batter is a thin layer of cream cheese. It\u2019s a quick cheesecake batter made up of cream cheese, sugar, flour, and egg. Once baked, it creates a smooth and creamy layer on top of this carrot cake.<\/li>\n
  3. Brown Sugar Walnut Crumble<\/strong> \u2013 This isn\u2019t your basic crumble. The entire mix is sweetened with brown sugar and mixed with walnuts. It pairs so well with the carrot cake flavors.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    All three layers are baked into one magical coffee cake! Oh, and there\u2019s no actual coffee involved here. Its name is due to the fact that it is meant to be enjoyed with a cup of coffee. This could also be called a crumble or carrot crumb cake, but coffee cake is the term I\u2019ve always used and grew up with!<\/p>\n

    Tips for making moist cream cheese carrot coffee cake<\/h2>\n

    Carrot cake should be so moist with loads of fresh carrots and a hint of warm spices. Here are my top tips to ensure yours turns out just like this!<\/p>\n

    Carrot Cake Batter<\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. Carrots<\/strong> \u2013 Finely grate the carrots using the small holes on a box grater. The smaller shreds bake a much more even carrot flavor throughout the cake. Plus, a finer shred releases even more juices. Also make sure to pack the carrots down into the measuring cup to ensure you use just the right amount.<\/li>\n
    2. Flour<\/strong> \u2013 I say this in every post, and for good reason. It\u2019s the number one reason why most recipes fail. If there\u2019s too much flour, this cake will turn out tough and dry. If possible, measure the flour with a food scale<\/a>. Otherwise, to ensure the exact amount, gently spoon the flour into the measuring cup and level it off with a flat edge. If scooped directly into the flour container, the flour becomes packed down into the cup which could leave you with 1\/4 cup or more of added flour.<\/li>\n
    3. Mixing<\/strong> \u2013 Mix as much as needed for the wet ingredients, but gently mix once the dry ingredients are added to the batter. Over mixing can lead to a tough cake so less is more.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Cream Cheese Batter<\/h3>\n
        \n
      1. Cream Cheese \u2013 Use room temperature cream cheese! This is very important, otherwise the layer will turn out very lumpy. I also prefer to use Philadelphia full fat cream cheese for the best flavor and consistency. <\/li>\n
      2. Orange Zest \u2013 This is optional, but it does help brighten up the cheesecake layer. Just a teeny tiny bit is all that\u2019s needed.<\/li>\n
      3. Mixing \u2013 Start by mixing and mashing with a fork, then switch to a whisk when the egg is added. This will create the smoothest consistency. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        How to bake carrot coffee cake with cream cheese<\/h2>\n

        First the carrot cake batter is made, and then the cheesecake batter. <\/p>\n

        When the two are ready, the carrot cake batter is spread in a prepared 8\u00d78 baking dish. Meaning, it\u2019s lightly sprayed with nonstick spray and lined with parchment paper. <\/p>\n

        Once it\u2019s nice and even, use a spoon to gently blanket the cream cheese over the cake batter. Evenly ladle the cream cheese in order to cover most of the surface. Then, gently spread it even. <\/p>\n

        It\u2019s ok if the cream cheese doesn\u2019t tough right up against the sides of the pan. You should be left with about a half inch gab around the edges. <\/p>\n

        Now all that\u2019s left is the crumble! Sprinkle on top in an even layer, ensuring absolutely no cream cheese is peeking through.<\/p>\n

        The cake bakes for about 50-60 minutes. It\u2019s a bit difficult to tell when it\u2019s done as the toothpick test won\u2019t work here. It will just drag through the sticky cream cheese layer.<\/p>\n

        So to test for doneness, give the pan a little shake. If the center wobbles like liquid, give it another 5-10 minutes. If the center gives a tight jiggle, it\u2019s ready. <\/p>\n

        \"the\"the<\/figure>\n

        How to make carrot curls<\/h2>\n

        When the cake is baked and slightly cooled, there are two decoration options. Although to be honest, this cake is perfectly delicious on its own!<\/p>\n

        First is the icing. This is a simple quick icing using just milk and powdered sugar. The drizzle on top actually helps our carrot curls stick. <\/p>\n

        So to make the carrot curls, lay the carrot down on a cutting board and cut a long strip down one side. Discard this strip as it\u2019s too dry and will not stick to itself.<\/p>\n

        Then make another long strip slicing over the same spot. Continue this process until you have a bunch of carrot ribbons.<\/p>\n

        Roll the carrot ribbons around your finger. The strips should be somewhat damp to where they stick to themselves. You might end up with a few thick boys that just won\u2019t hold their shape so that\u2019s to be expected. <\/p>\n

        Now just place the little carrot curls on top and marvel at your work!<\/p>\n
