Carrot Loaf

I have been juicing lots of fruits and veggies.  I had pulp leftover from carrots I juiced.  Here is what I did with it.

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup regular flour
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
about 1/2 cup carrot pulp
vanilla
orange juice
1tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
handful or raisins

topped with Sugar in the raw sprinkled and some cinnamon


Just blend the ingredients with a handheld blender (minus the raisins)
add the orange juice until the mix is smooth and a little watery
mix in raisins and place in a loaf pan (spray it with PAM).
Sprinkle some Sugar in the Raw and cinnamon over it and bake at 350 degrees until golden brown and a knife comes out clean.
(about 40 minutes or so)





This is a very light tasting loaf, you can taste the orange and a little of the carrot.  It is light and fluffy not heavy and not too sweet. 
Try to get unbleached flour, and natural orange juice with no additives.
