Carrot Bread
This delicious and simple carrot bread recipe is packed with sweet cinnamon and carrots.
Servings: 10 - 14 slices
Ingredients
- 2 cups flour (or try this Keto Carrot Cake)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup shredded carrot (200g)
- 1 cup water
- 3 tbsp oil, butter, or almond butter (or see below for fat free option)
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 egg or flax egg, or 2 tbsp additional water
- 2/3 cup raisins (optional)
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease a 9x5 loaf pan. I also like to line the bottom with parchment. Stir dry ingredients in a large bowl, then stir in remaining ingredients until just evenly mixed. Spread into the loaf pan. Bake 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the carrot bread comes out mostly clean. Let cool completely. If you can wait, the taste and texture are even better the next day.*A few readers said they liked the results of subbing applesauce for the oil. I have not tried. Feel free to experiment.View Nutrition Facts
