This delicious and simple carrot bread recipe is packed with sweet cinnamon and carrots.
Ingredients
2 cups spelt, (oat, or white flour (or try this Keto Carrot Cake))
1/2 cup sugar, (unrefined if desired)
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)
optional 2/3 cup raisins
optional 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Method

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 loaf 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
