Carrot Pudding (/ˈkærət ˈpʊdɪŋ/) is a type of pudding that primarily uses carrots as its main ingredient.
Etymology
The term "Carrot Pudding" is derived from the English words "carrot", which is a root vegetable, and "pudding", a type of dessert. The exact origin of the term is unknown, but it is believed to have been first used in the 19th century when carrots were used as a substitute for more expensive ingredients in traditional pudding recipes.
Ingredients
The primary ingredient in Carrot Pudding is carrot. Other common ingredients include sugar, flour, butter, eggs, and various spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg. Some variations may also include raisins or nuts.
Preparation
Carrot Pudding is typically prepared by grating carrots and mixing them with the other ingredients to form a batter. This batter is then baked until it sets into a firm, cake-like texture. It is often served with a sweet sauce or cream.
