Spiced Brown Sugar Carrot Bread Recipes

SPICED BROWN SUGAR CARROT BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°. Coat two 8-by-4-inch loaf pans with cooking spray or grease and lightly flour the pans.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, cardamom and salt.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the light brown sugar and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the oil in a thin stream, beating at high speed until the batter has doubled in volume, about 2 minutes.
• Beat in the vanilla and lemon zest.
• Fold in the shredded carrots. Beat in the dry ingredients at low speed in 3 batches, mixing well between additions.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pans, filling them two-thirds full. Bake in the middle of the oven for 50 minutes to 1 hour, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of the loaves comes out clean.
• Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes before turning them out onto a rack to cool completely.

SPICY BROWN SUGAR CARROTS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium heat and add the carrots. Cook for 2 minutes, then drain in a colander and set aside.
• In a medium-size pot combine all the remaining ingredients, except the parsley, and bring to a simmer over low heat. Add the drained carrots and toss to combine. Simmer on low heat for 5 minutes to incorporate flavors. Transfer to a serving bowl, garnish with parsley and serve.
