How to Make 3 C Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease four 5 ¾ x 3 x 2 inch loaf pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, and ½ cup vegetable oil.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in 1 cup grated carrots, 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut, 1 cup chopped cherries, ½ cup raisins, and ½ cup chopped pecans.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared loaf pans.
- Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
