Melted coconut oil would work as well, just make sure all of your other ingredients are at room temperature so it doesn&#8217;t solidify.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sour Cream: <\/strong>Used in both the carrot cake and cheesecake. In the cake, it provides extra moisture; in the cheesecake, it breaks up the heavy cream cheese and makes for a creamier filling. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Grated Carrots: <\/strong>Make sure to buy whole carrots and grate them yourself. Pre-bagged shredded carrots are often very dry and do not work well. Remember that the carrot cake layer will be baked twice, so using freshly grated carrots that are packed with moisture is essential! <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cream Cheese: <\/strong>Use full-fat blocks of cream cheese for the cheesecake layer. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sugar: <\/strong>Light brown sugar is used in the carrot cake for flavor and moisture, while granulated sugar adds a little extra sweetness.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"2040\" data-id=\"53053\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-1jpg.jpg?resize=1360%2C2040&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"An overhead view of the wet ingredients in a glass mixing bowl. \" class=\"wp-image-53053\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-1jpg.jpg?w=1360&amp;ssl=1 1360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-1jpg.jpg?resize=340%2C510&amp;ssl=1 340w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-1jpg.jpg?resize=680%2C1020&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-1jpg.jpg?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-1jpg.jpg?resize=1024%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-1jpg.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-1jpg.jpg?resize=560%2C840&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-1jpg.jpg?resize=150%2C225&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"2040\" data-id=\"53054\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-2.jpg?resize=1360%2C2040&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"An overhead view of carrot cake batter in a glass mixing bowl with a whisk. \" class=\"wp-image-53054\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-2.jpg?w=1360&amp;ssl=1 1360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-2.jpg?resize=340%2C510&amp;ssl=1 340w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-2.jpg?resize=680%2C1020&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-2.jpg?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-2.jpg?resize=1024%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-2.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-2.jpg?resize=560%2C840&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-Step-2.jpg?resize=150%2C225&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Make Carrot Cake Cheesecake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, spices, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

Then, wrap the entire pan with aluminum foil and place it into an oven bag to protect it in the water bath.

If you&#8217;ve never used one before, you can refer to my post on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/water-bath-for-cheesecake\/\">how to make a water bath for cheesecake<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"2040\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-6.jpg?resize=1360%2C2040&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A side view of a sliced carrot cake cheesecake. \" class=\"wp-image-51694\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-6.jpg?w=1360&amp;ssl=1 1360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-6.jpg?resize=340%2C510&amp;ssl=1 340w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-6.jpg?resize=680%2C1020&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-6.jpg?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-6.jpg?resize=1024%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-6.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-6.jpg?resize=560%2C840&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-6.jpg?resize=150%2C225&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Storage Instructions <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a wonderful make-ahead dessert since the cheesecake has to chill for several hours anyways before it can be sliced and served. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once it&#8217;s cooled, you may cover the cheesecake tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for up to five days. Any leftovers can be frozen for up to three months as well, just thaw in the fridge overnight when you are ready to enjoy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"2040\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Carrot-Cake-Cheesecake-9.jpg?resize=1360%2C2040&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A slice of carrot cake cheesecake on a dessert plate with a fork. \" class=\"wp-image-51697\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-lightmint-background-color has-background\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Baking Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Since the carrot cake layer is baked twice, it&#8217;s important that you use the exact ingredients listed in the recipe card below to keep it super moist. That includes using full-fat sour cream, large eggs, and carrots that you&#8217;ve grated yourself. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The oven bag isn&#8217;t strictly necessary when baking cheesecake in a water bath, but I highly recommend using one so that no water creeps into the springform pan. If you don&#8217;t have an oven bag, a slow cooker liner works just as good!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To prevent the cheesecake from cracking or sinking, let it cool in the oven with the door cracked for about 30 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For a little extra decoration, I topped my cheesecake with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/homemade-whipped-cream\/\">whipped cream<\/a>, ground cinnamon, and some extra grated carrots.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div
