Ingredients

	4 cups (500 g) All-purpose flour
	2 cups (180 g) Rolled oats
	8 tsp Baking powder I used the mix of cream of tartar (100 g), flour (10 g), ammonium (8 g) and baking soda (50 g)
	8 tsp Cinnamon Powder
	2 1/2 tsp Ground nutmeg
	2 tsp Allspice
	2 tsp Salt
	1 1/2 tsp Cloves
	8 Eggs
	8 tbsp (120 g) Butter You may substitute it with margarine.
	2 cups (400 g) Sugar
	2 cup (560 g) Greek yogurt You can make it at home: take 2 cups (480 g) of milk, boil it, let it cool until it's warm. Then add 1 tbsp of greek yogurt (or sour cream), whisk, put in jars (leave some space!) and screw on lids. Leave in warm place for 6 hours.
	1 cup (200 g) Applesauce I used the homemade applesauce. It's quite easy to make: take 3 pound (1350 g) of apples, 1/2 cup of water or apple juice/cider (120 g), juice of 1/2 lemon, 1/4 cup (50 g) sugar. Combine, cook on medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring, and process in blender. Store in the fridge or cook right away!
	8 cup (400 g) Carrot
	2 cup (300 g) Raisins I used light raisins
	1 tsp Vanilla extract

Steps

1 Done	Gather all necessary components of this recipe before starting. Keep in mind that eggs and butter should be warmed to room temperature.
2 Done	Grate your carrots. Use the side with larger holes.
3 Done	Combine the flour with your oats. You may also start preheating your oven, as making the batter won't take too long.
4 Done	Add your salt to the mixing bowl.
5 Done	Pour the baking powder over your mixture.
6 Done	Stir some nutmeg into the rest of dry components.
7 Done	Add the cinnamon to the bowl.
8 Done	Shell the cardamom beforehand and grind it together with cloves and allspice.
9 Done	Combine the freshly ground spices with the dry components.
10 Done	Thoroughly mix all items added before.
11 Done	Beat all eggs into another bowl, which will be used for making the batter, so it should be bigger.
12 Done	Lightly whisk your eggs, add the extract.
13 Done	Pour the Greek yogurt into the eggs.
14 Done	Add the sugar to your wet mixture.
15 Done	Carefully combine eggs, yogurt and sugar. Then, add the applesauce.
16 Done	Mix the soft butter into the base for your batter.
17 Done	Combine the wet and dry parts until the mixture is smooth.
18 Done	Mix the grated carrots into the batter.
19 Done	Rinse and dry the raisins, and then add them to the batter.
20 Done	Mix the batter until carrots and raisins are evenly distributed.
21 Done	Fill your Bundt mold with the batter, up to the top of each section, as they won't rise a lot. Bake for 30 minutes at a temperature of 180°С (360°F). The actual time may differ, depending on your oven, so check your spiced carrot cakes with a testing stick to make sure that they aren't too soggy.
22 Done	After your cakes are baked, let them stand in the mold for 5-10 minutes. Use a wire rack for that. You may also try different pans and molds, that won't affect the texture. If desired, you may sprinkle them with powdered sugar, but they taste good on their own. Enjoy!
