Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
2 1/2 cups grated carrots (about 3–4 medium carrots)
3 large eggs
3/4 cup vegetable oil (or canola oil)
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4–1 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease and flour a loaf pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and pumpkin pie spice.
In another bowl, mix grated carrots, eggs, oil, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add half of the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir. Add the remaining dry ingredients and mix until fully incorporated.
Fold in the chopped walnuts.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 55–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool before slicing and serving.
Notes
Do not overmix the batter to keep the bread soft and tender.
You can substitute walnuts with pecans or omit them for a nut-free version.
Add raisins for extra sweetness and texture if desired.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
