Oh Carrot Cake how we adore you. We all have memories of grandma's house and fresh cake out of the oven, packed with butter and sugar. Well we have brought you a loaf with all the memories but none of the guilt. This Carrot Cake Loaf is totally gluten free, dairy free and grain free.
You can also make this recipe as a cake if you prefer. However, we made a loaf because we felt it slightly more socially acceptable to have three slices at once of Carrot Cake Bread than it was to have three slices of Carrot Cake.... purely semantics, but we're rolling with it. To top it off, our 'cream cheese' frosting will have you wishing there was extras to lick straight off a spoon. Tangy, sweet, creamy and the perfect match for the loaf.
