Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups white, spelt, or oat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • ¾ teaspoon salt

Baking Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease a 9x5 pan, or line with parchment.
  • Combine dry ingredients in a bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk liquid ingredients—including carrot and banana.
  • Pour wet into dry, and stir to form a batter.
  • Smooth into prepared pan.
  • Bake on the center rack for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
  • Let cool. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Taste and texture are much better the second day.
  • Leftovers can be sliced and frozen for up to a month.

Notes

Taste and texture improve over time, especially on the second and third days. Frosting can be added if desired.
