Ingredients
For the bread:
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 2 large bananas
- ¾ cup light brown sugar packed
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¼ cup milk
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cup finely diced apples
For the frosting:
- 4 ounce cream cheese softened
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 Tablespoons milk
Instructions
- Grease two 9" x 5" loaf pans with baking spray. Set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degree F.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine butter and bananas. Blend until bananas are mashed and mixed with butter. Add in sugars and beat until combined.
- Add in flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and milk. Beat until well combined. Add in eggs and beat well. Fold in carrots and apples.
- Pour into greased pans. Bake for 60 minutes, until toothpick in center comes out clean.
- Remove from oven and cool on rack for 10 minutes. Remove from pans and cool completely.
- For frosting: beat cream cheese with sugar, milk and vanilla until smooth (about 3-4 minutes). Spread over cooled bread. Slice and enjoy!
Notes
- No need to mash the bananas first! Use an electric mixer to mash the banana as you combine it with the butter.
- Want a less sweet apple carrot banana bread? Skip the cream cheese frosting. It's delicious both ways.
- This bread is perfect for freezing! If you won't be eating both loaves right away, wrap one in foil and a freezer bag and store in the freezer.
- Apple Banana Carrot Bread keeps well in the refrigerator for about 1 week. Frozen bread stays good for about 3 months.
