Whole Wheat Carrot Banana Bread

By Addie

MY NOTES: I have had this recipe for years! It's great as a dinner bread and with soups.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 cup ripe mashed bananas
• 1 cup finely shredded carrots
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Step 1

1. In a mixer bowl beat butter 30 seconds. Add sugar; beat until fluffy. Beat in eggs. Combine flours, soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a bowl. Add dry ingredients and bananas alternately to butter mixture, beating after each addition. Fold in carrots and nuts.

2. Pour into two greased 7-1/2 x 3-3/4 x 2 inch loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees in oven for 40 to 50 minutes. Also will make muffins. If making muffins cook for 20 minutes.
