Carrot Cake Loaf
While I love my gourmet layered Carrot Cake, and my Easy Single-layer Carrot Cake, this Carrot Cake Loaf is what I’ve been making the most. It just uses simple pantry ingredients to make a moist and incredible carrot cake bread, so I can easily satisfy my carrot cake craving.
How to make Carrot Cake Loaf:
Combine Wet Ingredients: Mix together sugars, eggs, applesauce, oil, and vanilla. Stir in shredded carrot.
Finish Batter: In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and allspice. Pour into wet mixture then stir to combine. Pour into prepared bread pan.
Bake: Place in oven at 350°F for 45-55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. (If it’s getting too brown, tent a piece of foil on top until it’s done baking). Cool in pan for a few minutes before removing to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. Top with cream cheese frosting, if desired.
Storage and Freezing Instructions:
To Store: Store frosted carrot cake loaf in the fridge for 3-4 days. Without the cream cheese, it will keep at room temperature for 2-3 days.
To Freeze: Store frosted or unfrosted carrot cake bread in the freezer in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 3 months. Thaw completely at room temperature before serving.
