CARROT CAKE LOAF RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F(177°C). Grease 8 1/2 * 4 1/2 inch (21,5*10,5cm) loaf pan and line the bottom and sides with parchment paper, about 2 inches(5 cm) of overhang on each side. If you like, you can grease and flour the dish instead of parchment paper.
• Place the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder (and salt if using) into a medium bowl and mix. Set aside.
• Roughly chop the walnuts into small pieces with a sharp knife, set aside.
• Peel and grate the carrots, set aside.
• Put the sugar and eggs in a large bowl and mix with a whisk until just combined for almost 45 seconds.
• Mix in the olive oil and vanilla extract, stir with a whisk until just combined.
• Add the flour mixture in 2 batches and stir until just combined. You can use a whisk in the first batch but it will be easier to use a spoon/spatula in the end to mix easily.
• Add the carrots and stir with a spoon/spatula. Mix in the walnuts.
• Pour the batter into the loaf pan with the help of a spoon.
• Bake for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean that is inserted in the center and the top is golden brown. After you remove the pan from the oven, leave in the pan until it cools completely, at least for 1 hour.

CARROT CAKE LOAF (QUICK BREAD)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan. See notes for muffins or mini loaves.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg together in a large bowl until combined. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk the oil, eggs, brown sugar, applesauce, vanilla, and carrots together until combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently whisk until *just* combined. Fold in the nuts/add-in. Batter will be semi-thick.
• Spread the batter into prepared loaf pan. Bake for 55 - 65 minutes. (I like to loosely cover the bread with aluminum foil halfway through to prevent heavy browning on top.) Baking times vary so keep an eye on yours. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out *mostly* clean with zero raw batter. Remove the bread from the oven.
• Cool completely in the pan set on a wire rack before removing and frosting.
• Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the cream cheese in a medium bowl on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy. Beat in the butter until combined. Add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt (I usually add a little less than 1/8 teaspoon), then beat on low speed until smooth and creamy. Taste. Add more cinnamon and/or salt if desired. Frost cooled bread, slice, and serve.
• Cover and store leftover bread at room temperature for up to 3-4 days or in the refrigerator for up to about 10 days. Storing with frosting: Cover and store leftover bread in the refrigerator for up to about 1 week.
