Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour; 1 tsp baking powder; 1/2 tsp baking soda; 1/2 tsp salt; 1 tsp ground cinnamon; 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg; 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened; 1 cup granulated sugar; 2 large eggs; 1 tsp vanilla extract; 1 cup grated carrots; 1/2 cup sour cream; 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional); Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the grated carrots and sour cream until evenly distributed, being careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the chopped walnuts if using, for an extra crunch and nutty flavor.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out 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.
Allow the Carrot Cream Dream Bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar for a beautiful finish.
