Banana Carrot Bread


This is a fun variation on regular banana bread. I had a bunch of carrots in my fridge so I made this recipe to use some of them up. You really can't taste the carrots but you can see the pretty orange flecks. :)

Banana Carrot Bread

1 cup mashed bananas (about two large, very ripe bananas)
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup canola oil
2 eggs
2 cups sifted flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg (I do slightly less.)
1 cup finely grated carrots

Combine bananas, brown sugar, oil & eggs in bowl and mix. Sift flour, soda, salt, cinnamon & nutmeg together in large bowl. Stir into banana mixture. Fold in carrots. Spoon into large greased and floured loaf pan. Bake at 350 for 45-55 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Can also makes these into muffins.
