Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups brown sugar, packed
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1.5 cups carrots, finely grated
- 0.75 cups raisins
- 2 eggs
- 0.5 cups milk
- 0.5 cups vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into the well. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.
Fold in the grated carrots and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
