Ingredients

  • 1 medium carrot, grated (¾ cup/65 grams grated carrot total)
  • 1 medium apple, grated (¾ cup/85 grams grated apple total)
  • ½ cup (120 ml) unsweetened soy milk
  • ½ cup (120 ml) maple syrup
  • ½ cup (120 ml) sunflower oil
  • 1 teaspoon orange zest
  • 1 tablespoon orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (113 grams) whole wheat flour
  • ¾ cup + 1 tablespoon (98 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ⅓ cup (50 grams) raisins
  • ⅓ cup (38 grams) walnuts chopped
  • ¼ cup (13 grams) unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 2 tablespoons (12 grams) ground flax seed

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and position a rack in the middle. Grease an 8x4 loaf pan and line with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the grated carrot, grated apple, soy milk, maple syrup, sunflower oil, orange zest, orange juice, and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine.
  • In another large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, salt, raisins, walnuts, coconut, and ground flax. Stir to combine.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and fold them together using a spatula. Be careful not to over mix! Once you have a unified batter (A few dry spots is fine), transfer it to the prepared loaf pan.
  • Smooth out the top of the batter and garnish with extra chopped walnuts, raisins, and coconut if you like.
  • Bake the morning glory bread for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf emerges clean. Cool completely before slicing.

Recipe Notes

  • Working from the included gram amounts will be the most accurate and will yield the best results. If you're using cups, I recommend the spoon and level measuring method for the flour. Also for those using cups: do not "pack" the grated carrots, apples, or raisins.
Loaded with carrots, apples, walnuts, raisins, and coconut, this wholesome morning glory bread is the perfect pairing with a hot cup of coffee or tea. Featuring whole wheat flour and maple syrup, this loaf cake is perfectly moist, sweet and hearty.
