Carrot Cake Loaf
This past week I was getting ready to celebrate Passover. I shared two of my favorites: Nanny’s Meatballs and Chocolate Chip Coconut Macaroons.
Now, even though we still celebrate this evening, I’m ready to move my April festiveness along and get ready for Easter. I’m thinking an easter Sunday brunch with this perfectly moist, and of course grain-free, Carrot Cake Loaf is a must. Best part? It’s easy to throw together! You simply need one bowl; no mixer, nothing fancy.
