Carrot Bread

Cash asked me if I'd make carrot bread for him today. I told him I'd have to look up a recipe since I'd never made it (or heard of it) before. He told me that the recipe was simple: two fortune cookies, two cups of syrup and of course, carrots. Yum. If anyone out there HAS heard of carrot bread and has a recipe, I'd love to see it.

    Cooks.com has several incarnations of carrot bread including the one cut and pasted below. I love the internet!
    CARROT BREAD
    2 eggs
    1 cup sugar
    2/3 cup oil
    1 1/2 cups flour
    3/4 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    1 teaspoon nutmeg
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 1/2 cups finely grated raw carrots
    1 cup chopped walnuts
    3/4 cup raisins
    Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
    Beat eggs and add sugar and oil. Sift together flour, soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt, and add to egg mixture.
    Beat well. Add carrots, nuts and raisins. Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan and pour in batter.
    Bake one hour.
    Variation: Can be baked in 6 greased soup cans (good for camping trips or picnics!). Fill each can half full and bake 45-50 minutes at 350F degrees. Remove labels and wash and dry cans before using.

    Hi Rachel,
    This was the first time I’d seen your blog. Though my kids are now raising their kids, I still enjoyed your writing. It some way if feels like a tool to help me stay grounded. Say hello to Cash & West for me.
