Spiced Carrot Bread

Fall is a great time for baking the problem is that the holiday season is about the same time and all that baking leads to eating and that leads to gaining weight. Someone has to do it and well, with recipes like these who could resist. 

Spiced Carrot Bread

• 1/4 cup oil (I used grapeseed oil because it has a neutral taste and smell)
• 1/2 cup agave honey
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 cup grated carrots
• 1-1/4 cup Pamela’s Baking Mix
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon allspice or something similar (cloves, nutmeg)
• 1/4 cup raisins
• 1/4 cup pecans

• beat oil, eggs, and honey together
• add vanilla
• mix in remaining ingredients (except raisins and nuts) and mix well
• fold in raisins and nuts
• pour into well greased loaf pan (I use glass loaf pans)
• bake in preheated 350º oven for 45 to 50 minutes (inserted toothpick or knife should come out clean; don’t over bake; you may need to put a sheet of tinfoil on top to prevent over-browning)
Yum!
