Carrot Raisin Bread

By srumbel

Have you ever tried their carrot raisin bread? They put a basket of it on the table, along with their mini french bread, and both are wonderful! In case you don't have a Mimi's Cafe nearby, you may want to try this fabulous bread. It's not exactly like what they serve in the restaurant, but it's really good! I've made mine into mini bundts.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
• 1/2 cup diced canned pineapple, drained (I use crushed)
• 1/2 cup raisins (I used golden raisins this time because that's what I had)
• 1 cup finely shredded carrots

Preparation

Step 1

Sift first five ingredients into a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, sugar and eggs. Stir the liquid mixture into the flour; mix well. Add the next four ingredients; stir again.

Grease and flour a 9-inch square pan or four mini-loaf pans. Fill the pans 2/3 full with batter. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 30 minutes. Mini-loaves take about 20 minutes. I love making mini bundts for this.
