A moist and flavorful Carrot Ginger Loaf topped with a golden cinnamon ginger crunch, freshly baked and served on a rustic wooden board.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 
1 teaspoon baking powder 
1/2 teaspoon baking soda 
1/2 teaspoon salt 
1 teaspoon ground ginger 
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 
1/2 cup vegetable oil 
1 cup granulated sugar 
2 large eggs 
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 
1 1/2 cups grated carrots 
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional) 
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a loaf pan.
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, and cinnamon.
In another bowl, mix oil and sugar until well combined. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Fold in grated carrots and nuts if using.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
