CARROT COCONUT BREAD

This is a really moist hearty sweet bread that my family loves. It is adapted from a recipe in the "More With Less Cookbook". I sometimes reduce the fat even more by using apple sauce instead of the oil, but I do like the texture the oil gives it. Also, you can add 1/2 cup chopped nuts if you would like. It gives it a nice crunch.

  • Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg in a large bowl. Add the hazelnuts and coconut.

Categories     Banana     Breakfast     Bake     Bread     Dessert     Carrot     Wheat/Gluten-Free

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the plan
2 cups gluten-free flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2/3 cup light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup ripe banana, mashed (from 3 bananas)
2/3 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded carrot (from 2 large)
1 cup finely shredded unsweetened coconut

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375*F. Coat an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch loap pan with butter and dust with the flour; tap out the excess. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl; set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the butter and sugar until no lumps remain.
  • Whisk in the eggs, vanilla, banana, and sour cream. Stir in the carrot and coconut. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean, 65-70 minutes. Cool the bread in the pan for 30 minutes. Turn out the loaf on a wire rack to cool further. Serve warm or at room temperature. Or cool completely, wrap, and freeze for up to 2 weeks

Tips:

  • Grate the carrots finely. This will help them distribute evenly throughout the bread and prevent large chunks.
  • Use fresh shredded coconut. This will give the bread a more intense coconut flavor.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense bread.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing. This will help prevent the bread from crumbling.
