• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup walnuts
• 3 bananas, mashed
• 1 cup grated carrots
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 4x8-inch loaf pans.

Step 2

Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Beat brown sugar and butter together in a separate bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Stir flour mixture, alternating with bananas, into creamed butter mixture just until batter is mixed; fold in carrots and walnuts. Pour into the prepared loaf pans.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a loaf comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes.
