Use It All Loaf

So much better than banana bread! This loaf is a staple at Cornersmith and my home kitchen. It’s one of our most popular recipes, because you can use whatever grated vegetables or fruits you have – try grated carrot, grated pear or grated beetroot. Plus you can use up bits and pieces from the pantry -nuts or seeds, choc chips or dried fruits, it all works. And it’s fun coming up with different combinations.

Just avoid very over-ripe fruit as it will make the loaf too wet!

Eat this for breakfast, pop it into lunchboxes or serve it with tea in the afternoon.

See tips below for some of our favourite flavour combinations.

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F/Gas mark 4). Line the base of a 23 cm (9 inch) loaf (bar) tin with baking paper.

Step 2
Whisk the flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl.

Step 3
Using electric beaters or a whisk, beat the eggs and sugar until pale, thick and frothy.

Step 4
Slowly add the oil and continue to beat for a few more minutes until smooth and well combined. Add the grated carrot and gently mix to combine.

Step 5
Fold the wet mixture into the dry mix, adding the nuts. Pour the batter into the prepared tin and scatter a few extra nuts over the top.

Step 6
Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the centre of the loaf comes out clean. Leave to cool a little before turning out of the tin onto a wire rack to cool.
