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

Ingredients

2 large eggs, room temperature
3/4 cup canola oil
3/4 cup honey
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups grated carrots (about 3 large carrots)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. Combine eggs, oil, honey and vanilla; beat until smooth. In another bowl, whisk next 7 ingredients for 30 seconds. Stir flour mixture into egg mixture just until combined. Add carrots; mix well.
Pour batter into a lightly greased 9x5-in. loaf pan; bake until a toothpick inserted in center of loaf comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.

Test Kitchen tips

The honey flavor really comes through here, so be careful—if you're using a strongly flavored honey, as it may overpower the other ingredients.

This light and tender bread keeps well at room temperature but it can be chilled to help extend its life a day or two longer. It also freezes well for up to six months.
