This Maharashtrian loaf cake is a modern twist on the classic carrot halwa dessert. It combines the rich flavours of carrots, ghee, nuts, raisins, and cardamom with the loved loaf cake form, making it perfect for teatime or dessert. Using almond flour keeps it naturally gluten-free, while eggs and honey add moisture and sweetness.
