Ingredients
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tsp baking soda
– 1/2 tsp baking powder
– 1 tsp cinnamon
– 1/2 tsp salt
– 3/4 cup vegetable oil (or canola)
– 1 cup brown sugar
– 2 eggs (large)
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1 1/2 cups grated carrots (about 3 medium, packed)
– 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Notes
🥕 Grate carrots fresh for maximum moisture and flavor, using the fine side to ensure even distribution without large chunks in the bread.
🍞 Mix wet and dry ingredients separately to avoid overworking the batter, preserving the light, fluffy texture of this quick bread.
❄️ Slice and freeze individual portions in bags for up to 3 months; thaw at room temp or toast for a warm, fresh-baked experience anytime.
