Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
-
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until pale and fluffy.
-
Slowly pour in the vegetable oil while continuing to mix. Add the buttermilk and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
-
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
-
Gently fold in the grated beets and chopped walnuts, if using, until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
