Cook Time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour
Yield 10 - 14 slices

Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour (or try this Keto Carrot Cake)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 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
  • 2/3 cup raisins (optional)
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  • 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 carrot bread 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.
