Found this recipe in a Gold Medal "Lets Bake...muffins, cakes, bars & more" cookbook my DM had. Posting it for my DD who loves this recipe. This is really good served with Recipe #169850, or slathered with cream cheese. Also makes up well in muffins or mini loaves for gift giving.

Quick and easy to put together, especially if you grind the carrots in the food processor and then add sugar, oil, and eggs and give it a whirl. I used 1/2 cups nuts and threw in a tablespoon of flax seeds for good measure. I'd add even more nuts next time. Lovely bread, nice flavor.
