Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves until well combined. Set aside.

  3. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

  4. Slowly pour in the vegetable oil while continuing to mix. Add the vanilla extract and mix until well incorporated.

  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  6. Gently fold in the grated carrots and chopped nuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  9. Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  10. Slice and enjoy your delicious Golden Carrot Loaf with a cup of tea or coffee!
