Notes

Expert Chef Tips

  • Substitute sugar with brown sugar. The color of the bread will change accordingly.
  • Use parchment paper to line the bread loaf pan for easy removal and cleanup.
  • Use fresh baking soda for a good leavening effect.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing.

Storage and Make-Ahead Instructions

  • Storage Instructions: The bread can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days and in the refrigerator for up to 10 days. Therefore, this carrot bread can be made beforehand, especially during the Holidays!
  • Freezer Instructions: Cover the bread with cling film, wrap it in aluminum foil, and store it in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw for 4 to 6 hours at room temperature or up to 24 hours in the refrigerator before serving.
