Description

Mini loaves of spiced carrot cake are perfect for holiday gifting; serve them as is, or frost with a cream cheese frosting for an extra wow factor.

Ingredients

3 cups grated carrots
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 cups white sugar
1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts
1 1/4 cups oil
4 eggs
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 6-cavity mini loaf tray.
2 Mix carrots, flour, sugar, walnuts, oil, eggs, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl until combined. Pour batter into the prepared tray, filling each loaf cavity 3/4 full.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes, then transfer loaves to a wire rack to finish cooling.
