Carrot Honey Loaf image

As a busy health-care professional and mom, one of the most meaningful gifts I give to the people I love is my time and skills in the kitchen. I have been baking since I was 7 years old and while I still am an avid baker, raising three children, caring for three dogs and working full-time leaves me with little energy! My family appreciates all my efforts and this is a favorite extra "gift" I give people for special events like a housewarming or welcoming a new baby. It is especially good toasted with butter. -Krystal Horudko, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada

This loaf freezes well, so it's a great make-ahead breakfast or snack.

This loaf is a great way to use up leftover carrots. I always have a few carrots left over after making soup or salad, and this loaf is a great way to use them up.

I'm not usually a fan of carrot cake, but this loaf is an exception. It's not too sweet and the carrots add a nice subtle flavor.

I love the crunch of the pecans in this loaf. It adds a nice contrast to the soft, moist texture of the bread.

I've made this loaf several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's a great way to use up leftover carrots, and the honey glaze gives it a lovely golden crust.

Easy to follow recipe and the loaf turned out perfect! I used walnuts instead of pecans and it was still delicious.
