Let me talk quickly. We are currently experiencing unseasonably cold temps with wind gusts in the….well below our comfort level. My computer has been off and on again with power outages and server issues.
Carrot Cake Breakfast Bread served with hot comforting coffee makes ‘unseasonably’ seem novel.

Before we move on. Did I not score the cutest loaf pan EVER? Straight off the thrift store shelf, still inscribed with $2.47 on the bottom. Steal!!

Back to this super moist, ultra flavorful Carrot Cake Breakfast Bread with pecan crumble topping and hints of coconut…. what more can I say, other than you are going to love it!!

I pulled the last batch of carrots of the green house yesterday and I am looking to make some delicious cake with it. I think I’ve found the recipe. Love your work Libby.
Thank you so much Mira. I’m envious that you have a green house. What a joy that must be. I hope you love this bread like we do.
Thank you for all of the great recipes. I own a preschool for 150 children, and I am looking for yummy and healthy “quantity” recipes. Thank you. Mary Lou
Welcome Mary Lou. Thank you for visiting and for thinking healthy when feeding all those little ones.
OMG – I am in LOVE with that loaf pan! Are there any manufacturer’s marks on it at all? I have been looking and looking for one like it without much success. P.S. Making the bread this week. Looks delicious :)
You’re going to hate this Aimee, but I found it at Goodwill. I will check the bottom when I get home tonight and see if there’s a brand. It is beautiful. I hope you love the bread like we do.
