Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups grated carrots
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat together the brown sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add the grated carrots and mix until well combined.
Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Fold in the chopped walnuts, if using.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve!
