How to Make Banana Carrot Oatmeal Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- In a separate bowl, mash 2 ripe bananas with a fork. Add 1 cup grated carrots, 1 cup rolled oats, ½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy), ¼ cup vegetable oil, 1 large egg (or flax egg), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix well to combine.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
