Nana's Carrot Bread


Find it On Pinterest

Cook's Note: I saw this recipe on Pinterest and it looked really good. I had never had Carrot Bread before, but it sounded like a healthy alternative and a sneaky way to get veggies into my toddler. I decided to make it one Sunday and it was not only easy to make, but also seriously delicious. If you like carrot cake, then you will like this bread. It's a hearty bread and great for breakfast or just a nice afternoon snack.

What You Will Need:

4 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 ¼ cups Apple Sauce
3 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 ½  tsp baking soda
¼  tsp sea salt
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp Nutmeg
2 cups finely shredded raw carrots

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spray 2 loaf pans with non-stick cooking spray.
In your stand mixer…. beat eggs (one at a time). Gradually add sugar and beat together until the mixture is thick.
Gradually add  Apple Sauce and mixing until well combined.
Slowly add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and sea salt until the mixture is smooth.
Slowly fold in the carrots until well combined.
Pour batter evenly into loaf pans.
Bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.


Just look at that yummy carrot goodness in there!
