Instructions

1. Beat the egg whites until stiff and set aside. Finely grate the carrots and set aside.
2. Mix the egg yolks with the water, sugar, amaretto and cinnamon until frothy. Weigh the nuts and corn grits and mix with baking powder. Add to the egg yolk mixture with the carrots and stir well. Finally, carefully fold in the stiffly beaten egg white.
3. Put everything in a greased springform pan and bake at 175 degrees, top / bottom heat, for 60 minutes.
4. After cooling, dust with powdered sugar. Or if you like it, brush it with a powdered sugar glaze. To do this, dissolve the powdered sugar with a little lemon juice in a bowl. You could also make a cream cheese cream. But I never tried that because the cake is so juicy.
