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.
CARROT CAKE LOAF
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray or softened butter. Line bottom and 2 short sides with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cloves.
- In a medium bowl, vigorously whisk sugar, oil, and vanilla.
- Gently whisk in eggs and yolk, one at a time.
- Add dry ingredients to wet. Using a flexible spatula, gently fold dry into wet until just a few streaks of flour remain.
- Fold in grated carrots.
- Transfer batter to prepared pan, smoothing top if necessary. Bake for about 1 hour, rotating pan after 30 minutes. Cake is done when a tester comes out with a moist crumb or two, but no wet batter.
- Remove cake from oven and let cool for ten minutes before lifting out of pan by parchment "handles." Let cool completely before serving (or frosting, if you like).

Steps:
- If you have time to do it the night before, put the orange zest and juice in a bowl with the sultanas. If you don't have time simply stir the zest, juice and sultanas together and microwave on Medium for 1-2 mins.
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and grease and line the base and sides of a 2lb loaf tin. Whisk together the oil and eggs. Mix together the sugar, flours, mixed spice, cinnamon and bicarb in your largest mixing bowl. Add the sultanas with any juice and zest left in the bowl, grated carrot, walnuts and whisked egg mixture into the dry ingredients, then thoroughly mix with a wooden spoon. Tip into the loaf tin and bake on the middle shelf for 1 hr, or until a skewer comes out clean. Cool the cake in the tin.
- Once cool, remove from the tin and make the icing. With an electric whisk beat together butter, cinnamon and icing sugar until it comes together and is smooth. It takes a little while to come together (will look like breadcrumbs for a bit). Add the cream cheese and beat briefly until soft and smooth. Be careful not to overbeat or the cream cheese may split and become runny. Spread over the top of the cake and decorate with walnut halves.
